Hello, and welcome to the 105th episode of The Friday Nightmares Podcast.
00:01:22.258 --> 00:01:30.578
Today on Friday Nightmares Podcast, Scottie and I try to find a new way to record now that Skype no longer is a service provider.
00:01:30.578 --> 00:01:33.478
So that's been its horror movie within itself.
00:01:33.478 --> 00:01:35.898
But my name is Heather Powell.
00:01:35.898 --> 00:01:44.138
I am one half of The Friday Nightmare Podcast, and I am coming to you today from Waterdown, Ontario, Canada.
00:01:44.878 --> 00:01:48.358
And with me, as always, Mr.
00:01:48.358 --> 00:02:03.698
Smoke Show Crawford, coming to you from the town of Swartz Creek, in the county of Genesee, in the state of Michigan, in the United States of America, in the North American continent, in the Western Hemisphere, on the planet Earth, in the Milky Way Galaxy.
00:02:03.698 --> 00:02:06.558
Fully vaxxed, boosted and waxed, and ready to climax.
00:02:06.558 --> 00:02:10.398
And if you can, please get me wet and feed me after midnight.
00:02:10.398 --> 00:02:27.098
I'm the man with the glorious beard, aka mother of cats, aka the man with the humongous ego, aka Scott Howson, aka Scottie Hugh Hottie, aka Spanky, aka Hey Scott, aka I'm bald.
00:02:27.098 --> 00:02:29.518
At least that's what my youngest calls me.
00:02:31.078 --> 00:02:33.718
That's so kind and just so descriptive.
00:02:33.718 --> 00:02:35.498
What more do you need to know?
00:02:35.498 --> 00:02:44.638
Yeah, well, it's beautiful because since Jaden loves to call me bald, Erika bought me this shirt that says I'm not going bald.
00:02:44.638 --> 00:02:46.238
I'm just getting more head.
00:02:46.238 --> 00:02:47.298
That's pretty funny.
00:02:47.298 --> 00:02:49.518
You see, that's wife material right there.
00:02:49.518 --> 00:02:52.178
Exactly.
00:02:52.178 --> 00:02:56.398
But yeah, this whole freaking Microsoft Teams bullshit.
00:02:56.398 --> 00:02:57.818
Screw you, Microsoft.
00:02:57.818 --> 00:03:05.358
Skype was easy and you could do it for free, and now you got to do this premium bullshit, and this is dumb.
00:03:05.418 --> 00:03:05.938
Yeah.
00:03:05.938 --> 00:03:08.258
So spoiler behind the scenes.
00:03:08.258 --> 00:03:12.878
We tried Teams, didn't work, because you have to have a premium account.
00:03:12.878 --> 00:03:21.698
And then we went into Google because I was like, okay, it says you can record on Google Meets, and of course you have to preview and count, but luckily it gives you a 31-day trial.
00:03:21.698 --> 00:03:24.898
So this may be the last episode ever of Friday Nightmares Podcast.
00:03:26.058 --> 00:03:31.218
Yeah, because we love recording, but we didn't invest in money, come on now.
00:03:31.218 --> 00:03:33.158
We made $15 a month.
00:03:33.158 --> 00:03:40.158
So I'm still using the same freaking headset that I bought when we first started this podcast, we're crying out loud.
00:03:40.158 --> 00:03:44.918
Yeah, we're not like big budgets like the Dummies of Horror Podcast, you know what I mean?
00:03:46.598 --> 00:03:55.638
You know, they are the beef wellingtons of horror podcasting, so you know, obviously they are rich and have so much money because you got to be a rich person to be able to have people...
00:03:55.638 --> 00:03:58.058
Well, we don't ask for handouts in Patreon.
00:03:58.058 --> 00:03:59.518
Let's just put it that way, Scott.
00:03:59.518 --> 00:04:02.858
We're hardworking, hand jobs.
00:04:02.858 --> 00:04:03.878
That's true.
00:04:03.878 --> 00:04:07.818
We're like, oh no, we don't want money, we just want sexual gratification.
00:04:09.478 --> 00:04:12.438
So we'll try to figure out Discord.
00:04:12.438 --> 00:04:15.238
That will be, I think, the hot thing that all the young kids are doing.
00:04:15.238 --> 00:04:23.018
And so these two elder millennials will somehow figure out how to use Discord in the next 30 days, which can't be that hard.
00:04:23.238 --> 00:04:25.418
AI this now, we can Google AI.
00:04:25.418 --> 00:04:29.498
I mean, yeah, I'll say, like, I have Discord for my gaming laptop.
00:04:29.498 --> 00:04:34.898
And correct me if I'm wrong, Tim, but I think that's what you and Luffy are using now to record.
00:04:34.898 --> 00:04:43.278
I'm not sure, but yeah, I use Discord on very rare occasions when I played online with my buddies when I was playing Magic.
00:04:43.278 --> 00:04:46.558
And it's a mess trying to figure out things out for me.
00:04:46.558 --> 00:04:56.598
Like maybe it's because I'm old and technologically, just not with it, but yeah, I was confused trying to figure out my way around that damn site.
00:04:56.598 --> 00:05:00.718
We're like, why can't things be simple like they were back in the day of Skype?
00:05:00.718 --> 00:05:02.938
Yeah, back in my time, you know.
00:05:02.938 --> 00:05:07.438
I don't care that there was all these porn bots constantly trying to call me, God.
00:05:07.438 --> 00:05:08.398
It gave us attention.
00:05:08.398 --> 00:05:10.798
It made Scotty and I feel like someone cared.
00:05:10.798 --> 00:05:13.638
Exactly.
00:05:13.638 --> 00:05:14.998
Well, we'll get right into the movies.
00:05:14.998 --> 00:05:17.198
I do have my nephew today who naps like a boss.
00:05:17.818 --> 00:05:23.458
So I just put him down for nappies because I didn't think he would care about the horror movie podcast.
00:05:23.458 --> 00:05:25.518
We're going to go watch Serbian film later, of course.
00:05:25.738 --> 00:05:26.218
Of course.
00:05:26.218 --> 00:05:27.338
Of course, solo as well.
00:05:27.338 --> 00:05:29.078
I figure we may as well.
00:05:30.498 --> 00:05:30.898
I don't know.
00:05:30.898 --> 00:05:32.538
What's some martyrs?
00:05:32.538 --> 00:05:33.998
Yeah, dead girl.
00:05:33.998 --> 00:05:34.858
Yeah, you know what I mean?
00:05:34.858 --> 00:05:42.338
Just get a little nice taster of Winnie the Pooh blood and honey just so

he knows how fucked up his aunt is early on.
00:05:42.338 --> 00:05:44.338
Absolutely.
00:05:44.338 --> 00:05:45.538
So we'll jump right into it.
00:05:45.538 --> 00:05:46.198
It's been a while.
00:05:47.978 --> 00:05:53.178
It might be even longer before I figure out how to record stuff.
00:05:53.178 --> 00:05:55.858
So, yeah, I'm going to figure out, try to figure out Discord, too.
00:05:55.858 --> 00:05:58.698
And maybe together we can bring our powers together.
00:05:58.998 --> 00:06:03.118
Yeah, with our powers combined, we might figure out Discord.
00:06:03.118 --> 00:06:03.478
Right.
00:06:03.478 --> 00:06:06.538
Though I do think Facebook can record stuff, too.
00:06:06.538 --> 00:06:09.658
So I'm going to look into Messenger as well.
00:06:09.658 --> 00:06:12.698
Anyway, I don't know, this kind of just sums up the year.
00:06:12.698 --> 00:06:15.258
Maybe it's a sign because these movies haven't been great.
00:06:15.358 --> 00:06:19.818
There's been a handful of very good films I have seen, I will say.
00:06:19.818 --> 00:06:24.458
Or films that were just really good because they touched me in special places.
00:06:24.458 --> 00:06:27.718
I like it when I'm touched in special places.
00:06:27.718 --> 00:06:28.998
But it has been a year.
00:06:28.998 --> 00:06:31.098
It has been a year.
00:06:31.098 --> 00:06:32.598
Maybe it's a sign.
00:06:32.938 --> 00:06:33.578
Right.
00:06:34.118 --> 00:06:35.998
Good God.
00:06:35.998 --> 00:06:40.518
So we'll start off with, I'll start off with the first one on our list.
00:06:40.518 --> 00:06:41.738
The Woman in the Yard.
00:06:41.738 --> 00:06:45.418
This is a, I don't know, also known as the Babadook.
00:06:45.418 --> 00:06:48.978
Oh, pretty much.
00:06:50.158 --> 00:06:52.138
Anyway, don't let her in.
00:06:52.138 --> 00:06:54.698
It's a tagline for this one.
00:06:54.698 --> 00:07:03.798
In the aftermath of her husband's death, Widow Ramona struggles to raise her two kids, is hindered by the arrival of mysterious woman with supernatural abilities.
00:07:04.858 --> 00:07:08.058
This wasn't a horrible film by any stance of the imagination.
00:07:08.058 --> 00:07:11.098
It was very much a paint by numbers film.
00:07:11.098 --> 00:07:12.518
I see you gave it two and a half stars.
00:07:12.678 --> 00:07:14.578
I think that's a very fair rating.
00:07:14.578 --> 00:07:15.978
Yeah.
00:07:15.978 --> 00:07:19.538
It's basically Blumhouse trying to be A24.
00:07:19.618 --> 00:07:20.378
Yes.
00:07:20.378 --> 00:07:21.958
A little too little too late.
00:07:21.958 --> 00:07:23.858
Like we've been there, done that.
00:07:23.858 --> 00:07:27.318
Like Erica and I both kind of called what was happening.
00:07:27.318 --> 00:07:28.738
Oh, yeah, it was pretty easy.
00:07:28.738 --> 00:07:32.698
Like in the first ten minutes, you were like, and this is the movie.
00:07:32.698 --> 00:07:37.958
I will say the main character, Daniela's dead wilder performance is excellent.
00:07:37.958 --> 00:07:39.918
I think she is a great actress.
00:07:39.918 --> 00:07:41.778
I think she prepares the role well.
00:07:41.898 --> 00:07:44.538
Actually, I didn't have a beef with any of the acting in this.
00:07:44.538 --> 00:07:45.458
No, neither did I.
00:07:45.458 --> 00:07:47.558
It was just the story was dumb.
00:07:48.798 --> 00:07:53.658
Yeah, it was dumb and it just, yeah, it's been been done before.
00:07:53.658 --> 00:07:58.898
Like it's almost like paint by numbers exactly like some of the other movies we've seen.
00:07:58.898 --> 00:08:04.938
Like it's yeah, and obviously like slashers are all paint by numbers, but they add something.
00:08:04.938 --> 00:08:07.938
This was just it just felt like it was a copy and paste.
00:08:07.938 --> 00:08:10.958
Like this was like, oh, Boba Duk was too much for you.
00:08:10.958 --> 00:08:12.338
You didn't feel like watching it.
00:08:12.338 --> 00:08:13.118
Here you go.
00:08:13.118 --> 00:08:17.078
It's the same film only shorter and less metaphors.
00:08:17.098 --> 00:08:19.998
Exactly.
00:08:19.998 --> 00:08:20.898
But you know what?
00:08:20.918 --> 00:08:22.658
It was a simple, easy watch.
00:08:23.678 --> 00:08:25.458
It filled a void.
00:08:25.458 --> 00:08:28.258
I don't think it's going to get like a worst of the year.
00:08:28.258 --> 00:08:30.018
I don't think it deserves that.
00:08:30.018 --> 00:08:33.638
I think it understood its assignment and was less than 90 minutes long.
00:08:33.638 --> 00:08:35.158
So give you credit for that film.
00:08:36.578 --> 00:08:40.098
But yeah, definitely, it wasn't, I don't know.
00:08:40.098 --> 00:08:41.318
It's what you would expect.
00:08:41.318 --> 00:08:47.498
If you've watched horror movies for the last several years, more than just five of them, you know what was going to happen to Scotty.
00:08:47.498 --> 00:08:48.378
Oh, 100%.
00:08:49.278 --> 00:08:50.038
Right?
00:08:50.038 --> 00:08:52.418
But this next one you just saw.
00:08:52.418 --> 00:08:53.278
Yes, I did.
00:08:53.278 --> 00:09:04.298
So Erica and I just sat down on Friday night and watched Until Dawn, which has 103 minute runtime every night, a different nightmare.
00:09:04.958 --> 00:09:14.998
One year after her sister Melanie mysteriously disappeared, Clover and her friends head into the remote valley where she vanished in search of answers.
00:09:14.998 --> 00:09:25.698
Exploring an abandoned visitor center, they find themselves stalked by a mass killer and horrifically murdered one by one, only to wake up and find themselves back at the beginning of the same evening.
00:09:25.698 --> 00:09:31.658
So this is based off a PlayStation 4 video game of the same name, Until Dawn.
00:09:32.318 --> 00:09:36.638
And this was one of my favorite video games that I had played in that generation.
00:09:36.638 --> 00:09:52.258
It's basically a choose your own adventure style horror movie, except you're like, you basically play almost like the
director of the movie going, okay, I'm going to have this character be an asshole and make the dumbest choices because I don't like them and I want them to die.
00:09:52.258 --> 00:09:56.838
And you'll just have like, and then, you know, these events happen and you're playing the playing out throughout this movie.
00:09:57.918 --> 00:10:09.318
So, it's kind of hard to make a movie where there is no set story line, if you're basing it off the video game, because there are so many different pathways you could go down.
00:10:09.318 --> 00:10:22.118
I love what they did with this, with the whole kind of Groundhog's Day, they die, wake back up, they die, wake back up, and having to kind of try to figure out how to get out of this scenario before it's too late.
00:10:22.118 --> 00:10:24.538
The acting was decent all around.
00:10:24.538 --> 00:10:25.918
I wouldn't say anything amazing.
00:10:26.038 --> 00:10:32.158
It did have the girl from the Hellraiser remake that played the main character in that, and she...
00:10:32.358 --> 00:10:33.738
I liked her a lot.
00:10:33.738 --> 00:10:36.198
I thought all the characters were decent.
00:10:36.198 --> 00:10:38.938
The gore in this was pretty awesome.
00:10:38.938 --> 00:10:41.818
There were some really fun kills.
00:10:41.818 --> 00:10:50.698
Peter Stormar is in this, and which is awesome because he is also in the video game as his own, and he basically is almost kind of playing the same character.
00:10:50.698 --> 00:10:53.818
Yeah, a lot of nods to the video game.
00:10:54.318 --> 00:10:57.398
The story line definitely goes in different direction.
00:10:57.398 --> 00:11:06.218
But me being a huge fan of the Until Dawn game, I went in expecting them to try something different because like I say, it's kind of hard to...
00:11:06.218 --> 00:11:09.598
What would be the point of just remaking the game as the movie?
00:11:09.598 --> 00:11:10.538
Because it would just be pointless.
00:11:10.538 --> 00:11:12.878
It almost plays out like a movie as it is.
00:11:12.878 --> 00:11:13.978
So I like what they did.
00:11:13.978 --> 00:11:15.038
It's a nice touch.
00:11:15.038 --> 00:11:16.738
I had a lot of fun.
00:11:16.738 --> 00:11:20.078
There are definitely a lot of nods to the source material.
00:11:20.798 --> 00:11:25.598
And yeah, this is definitely an 8 out of 10, maybe an 8 and a half out of 10.
00:11:25.598 --> 00:11:27.518
Like, I am definitely going to rewatch this.
00:11:27.518 --> 00:11:30.538
And with the way the year is going, this may make my top 10.
00:11:30.538 --> 00:11:31.618
We'll see.
00:11:31.618 --> 00:11:33.478
But yeah, I definitely recommend this one.
00:11:33.478 --> 00:11:35.678
I found it to be a lot of fun.
00:11:35.678 --> 00:11:44.518
Some people I've seen are complaining about it, saying that it's too confusing and it doesn't stick to the source of the video game.
00:11:44.518 --> 00:11:51.938
But if you go into saying this is going to be a fun horror movie with a bunch of different fun kills, you'll have a lot of fun.
00:11:51.938 --> 00:11:52.778
And you know what?
00:11:52.778 --> 00:11:54.278
I'll take what I can get, Scotty.
00:11:54.278 --> 00:11:55.778
They're right.
00:11:55.778 --> 00:11:56.398
Yeah, right.
00:11:56.398 --> 00:11:57.298
Especially this year.
00:11:57.298 --> 00:11:58.358
Jesus Christ.
00:11:58.358 --> 00:12:02.118
Like I'm like a hungry, hungry dude at the bar.
00:12:02.118 --> 00:12:04.918
That's just like anyone will do.
00:12:04.918 --> 00:12:06.098
Anyone with a heartbeat.
00:12:06.138 --> 00:12:08.298
Anyone with a heartbeat.
00:12:08.298 --> 00:12:11.658
So we're, oh, I never even said where you could find Woman in the Art.
00:12:11.658 --> 00:12:16.518
It's available on like Google and Centiplex and YouTube if you decide that you want to rent it.
00:12:16.518 --> 00:12:17.738
Both Scotty and I didn't love it.
00:12:17.818 --> 00:12:20.858
So we obviously don't think it's worth the price.
00:12:20.858 --> 00:12:22.578
But what about this one?
00:12:22.578 --> 00:12:23.878
Where can we find this one?
00:12:23.878 --> 00:12:32.738
This one actually just became available to buy and rent this week on Apple TV, Google Play, Amazon Video, Fandango at Home, and YouTube.
00:12:32.738 --> 00:12:33.598
And you recommend it?
00:12:33.598 --> 00:12:35.238
Yes, I highly recommend it.
00:12:35.238 --> 00:12:36.558
I had a lot of fun with this one.
00:12:36.558 --> 00:12:38.858
And I think when you watch it, you'll have fun with it, too.
00:12:38.858 --> 00:12:39.718
I will like it.
00:12:40.058 --> 00:12:42.778
I already know I'll enjoy it.
00:12:42.778 --> 00:12:50.198
The next one, I'm so glad that you went next, because I watched this movie so long ago that I forgot until I really thought about it.
00:12:50.238 --> 00:12:52.398
I'm like, oh, yes.
00:12:52.398 --> 00:12:54.398
So this movie is live streamed.
00:12:54.398 --> 00:12:58.458
As a team, it's Scott's favorite, social media influencers.
00:12:58.478 --> 00:12:59.518
He loves them, actually.
00:12:59.518 --> 00:13:01.478
It's his favorite genre of films.
00:13:01.478 --> 00:13:02.118
I love that.
00:13:02.118 --> 00:13:03.178
My favorite.
00:13:05.018 --> 00:13:09.538
This is why Skype ended, because Scott doesn't like social media influencers.
00:13:09.538 --> 00:13:11.498
They targeted Scott specifically.
00:13:12.938 --> 00:13:13.658
They did.
00:13:13.658 --> 00:13:29.298
As a team of live streamers embark on a haunted house challenge, they quickly realized that the scares may be more real than they anticipated, like our haunted house and Skype no longer existing, us being unable to use Teams, just feeling like we don't know what's going on.
00:13:29.298 --> 00:13:32.938
With each twist and turn, they must navigate through the terror and fights to survive the night.
00:13:32.938 --> 00:13:34.918
This is a found footage film.
00:13:34.918 --> 00:13:38.498
I can't remember if
it follows all the found footage rules.
00:13:38.498 --> 00:13:40.578
The characters are quite obnoxious in this.
00:13:40.718 --> 00:13:42.998
I will warn anybody to watch this.
00:13:42.998 --> 00:13:44.578
I know.
00:13:44.578 --> 00:13:45.098
Shocking.
00:13:45.098 --> 00:13:47.638
Influencers that are obnoxious.
00:13:47.638 --> 00:13:48.998
No.
00:13:49.158 --> 00:13:51.838
And like, they're supposed to be obnoxious, right?
00:13:51.838 --> 00:13:54.798
But it was fine.
00:13:54.798 --> 00:13:58.698
You know, I will say it captured my attention for the 91 minutes.
00:13:58.698 --> 00:14:01.618
The plot moved pretty quickly.
00:14:01.618 --> 00:14:06.858
You know, basically, they go out to this house and it turns out, it's not supposed to be a haunted house.
00:14:07.458 --> 00:14:12.698
It's just supposed to be a place they're chilling in the woods kind of for the weekend.
00:14:12.698 --> 00:14:16.278
And then things do not go as planned.
00:14:16.558 --> 00:14:17.578
And I did enjoy it.
00:14:17.578 --> 00:14:20.078
For what it was worth, I thought that it was a quality film.
00:14:20.078 --> 00:14:23.278
I see David Garrett here has given it three stars and a pretty good review.
00:14:23.378 --> 00:14:25.198
And I think that's fair.
00:14:25.198 --> 00:14:29.618
But I will say the social media influenced characters are annoying.
00:14:29.618 --> 00:14:34.178
So if those characters annoy you, then you may not want to watch this movie.
00:14:34.218 --> 00:14:41.578
But if you are a found footage completist and you enjoy social media influenced horror, this could be one for you.
00:14:41.578 --> 00:14:43.198
Unfortunately, it's not available on Tubi.
00:14:43.198 --> 00:14:47.098
This would definitely be a watch that I would say to people, if it's on Tubi, check it out.
00:14:47.098 --> 00:14:52.658
It is only available on Apple TV, Google Play, Amazon, YouTube, and Fandango.
00:14:52.658 --> 00:14:57.018
I would say this is worth to rent it if what I described sounds like your thing.
00:14:57.078 --> 00:15:04.678
And see, I am torn, because I am a found footage aficionado completionist, but I hate social media.
00:15:04.678 --> 00:15:07.458
So it's like, I'm going to watch it, and I'm probably going to hate it.
00:15:07.458 --> 00:15:10.618
And the thing is, we get screeners from our friends.
00:15:10.618 --> 00:15:12.778
So it's a little bit of a different situation.
00:15:12.778 --> 00:15:21.678
But for the other folks out there, I would say only watch this if found footage, and social media influencers are your thing.
00:15:21.678 --> 00:15:22.418
Good to know.
00:15:22.418 --> 00:15:23.198
Yeah, yeah.
00:15:23.198 --> 00:15:24.678
Did you watch this next one?
00:15:24.678 --> 00:15:25.378
I did not.
00:15:25.918 --> 00:15:27.738
Oh, okay.
00:15:27.738 --> 00:15:30.778
So as I was watching this, I'm like, oh, that looks like it was filmed in Hamilton.
00:15:30.778 --> 00:15:31.718
Oh, yes.
00:15:31.718 --> 00:15:37.478
Yes, the whole thing was filmed in Hamilton and the most shady rundown areas, which gives you an idea.
00:15:37.698 --> 00:15:39.578
This felt like a made-for-TV film.
00:15:39.578 --> 00:15:42.118
Anyway, it's called It Feeds.
00:15:42.118 --> 00:15:43.378
Well, Ashley Graham's in it.
00:15:43.378 --> 00:15:45.158
That gives it away, does it not?
00:15:45.278 --> 00:15:45.638
Who is she?
00:15:45.638 --> 00:15:47.098
I recognize that name.
00:15:47.098 --> 00:15:52.998
She was in a lot of TV movies and shit in the 90s and 2000s and shit.
00:15:52.998 --> 00:15:53.798
So anyway.
00:15:53.798 --> 00:15:55.698
I recognize her, but I can't picture her.
00:15:55.978 --> 00:15:57.098
It's okay.
00:15:57.098 --> 00:15:58.658
It's okay.
00:15:58.658 --> 00:15:59.198
It Feeds.
00:15:59.198 --> 00:16:08.438
A clairvoyant therapist confronts her own personal demons while trying to save a young girl who believes a malevolent entity is feeding on her.
00:16:08.438 --> 00:16:13.178
Sean Astin Moore is in this movie, and I'll be honest, he's the highlight of this movie.
00:16:14.098 --> 00:16:15.358
I really like Sean Astin Moore.
00:16:15.358 --> 00:16:22.178
He's a Canadian actor, and he definitely had the acting chop set of everyone in the movie.
00:16:23.438 --> 00:16:29.698
Any kind of place like an anti-protagonist, so you can kind of get behind him.
00:16:30.178 --> 00:16:36.958
It's very much a we're going to be like, what was the one with Linshay, those movies, Insidious?
00:16:36.958 --> 00:16:39.518
Winky, winky, winky, but not really.
00:16:39.518 --> 00:16:39.878
Yeah.
00:16:40.638 --> 00:16:48.918
So if you are a fan of films like Insidious, and you really like Insidious, all of them, you're like, oh my god, these movies are the best.
00:16:48.918 --> 00:16:50.998
Then It Feeds could be for you.
00:16:50.998 --> 00:17:03.318
It follows a very similar plot line of a demon entity attaching itself to somebody and this other world that someone needs to go into to fight the entity.
00:17:04.238 --> 00:17:11.298
Some good special effects entertaining enough, but not something I would say people need to go run out and watch.
00:17:11.298 --> 00:17:12.618
Matt Wood has watched it.
00:17:12.618 --> 00:17:15.558
He's given it two and a half stars.
00:17:15.558 --> 00:17:22.338
I will only read one line because again, his reviews are the best, but they do give a little bit of a spoiler.
00:17:22.338 --> 00:17:22.978
Right.
00:17:22.978 --> 00:17:24.878
And I think he sums it up.
00:17:24.878 --> 00:17:28.218
This is literally the most generic horror film out there.
00:17:28.218 --> 00:17:30.458
Everything about it screams mediocracy.
00:17:32.478 --> 00:17:36.578
And I think that Matt has hit it right on the money there.
00:17:36.578 --> 00:17:38.818
It's not bad, but it's also not good.
00:17:38.818 --> 00:17:39.858
It's literally Mr.
00:17:39.858 --> 00:17:40.418
Midway.
00:17:40.418 -->
00:17:42.878
I don't know, Matt, you took the words right out of my mouth, baby.
00:17:42.878 --> 00:17:47.438
That is exactly what I would say.
00:17:47.438 --> 00:17:51.958
So unfortunately, this is not another movie that's available on Tubi.
00:17:51.958 --> 00:17:54.338
It's only available for rent.
00:17:55.938 --> 00:18:04.298
I would say the only thing I would add to what Matt's review is, and this is a runtime of 102 minutes, is you really got to like stuff like Insidious.
00:18:04.298 --> 00:18:09.838
Like I'm talking like, this is obviously a step below Insidious, but it's the same kind of thing.
00:18:09.838 --> 00:18:14.798
And if that's your thing, then this may be a movie that you enjoy, but I wouldn't run out and watch it.
00:18:14.798 --> 00:18:19.678
Like for the Tims and the Daniels out there, this is not needed for your list.
00:18:19.678 --> 00:18:23.758
I would tell Rob it's not needed, but he'd be like, I already know that Heather, and I only watch good movies.
00:18:23.798 --> 00:18:25.238
So I can tell Rob.
00:18:25.238 --> 00:18:31.338
Well, if you tell Rob, don't watch it, he will watch it and then blame you for making him watch it.
00:18:31.338 --> 00:18:32.638
That's how he rolls.
00:18:32.638 --> 00:18:34.558
He's already pretty mad at me for other things.
00:18:34.558 --> 00:18:37.418
So I don't want to add to the fire.
00:18:37.418 --> 00:18:39.318
I'll continue adding to the fire.
00:18:39.358 --> 00:18:40.438
You can add to the fire.
00:18:40.438 --> 00:18:41.618
So that's It Feed.
00:18:41.618 --> 00:18:45.138
And I'm excited for the next one because I haven't had a chance to watch this yet.
00:18:45.138 --> 00:18:46.618
So I really want to hear your thoughts.
00:18:46.618 --> 00:18:47.198
All right.
00:18:47.198 --> 00:18:50.118
So yeah, the next one is a Shudder exclusive.
00:18:50.118 --> 00:18:53.358
We got a chance to watch this one last weekend.
00:18:54.298 --> 00:18:57.938
But it is The Ugly Stepsister.
00:18:57.938 --> 00:19:01.118
Tagline is, If the shoe doesn't fit.
00:19:01.118 --> 00:19:12.258
In a fairy tale kingdom where beauty is a brutal business, Elvira battles to compete with her incredibly beautiful stepsister and she will go to any length to catch the prince's eye.
00:19:12.258 --> 00:19:14.258
I feel like that's my life with Erica and you.
00:19:14.258 --> 00:19:16.938
Like I'm competing against you.
00:19:16.938 --> 00:19:19.218
And at the wedding, it's my last shot.
00:19:19.218 --> 00:19:19.678
Don't worry.
00:19:20.258 --> 00:19:22.378
I was like, you already stole Erica's heart, Heather.
00:19:22.378 --> 00:19:26.658
I was like, Erica, which dress do you like more that you want me to wear?
00:19:27.818 --> 00:19:29.178
She's like, Heather, just pick one.
00:19:29.178 --> 00:19:30.318
I'm like, no, Erica.
00:19:30.318 --> 00:19:31.978
What do you like?
00:19:33.958 --> 00:19:34.278
Sorry.
00:19:34.278 --> 00:19:36.038
It's so true.
00:19:36.038 --> 00:19:36.938
Anyway, continue.
00:19:36.938 --> 00:19:38.098
I didn't mean to interrupt.
00:19:38.098 --> 00:19:39.218
Oh, you're right.
00:19:39.218 --> 00:19:40.118
I didn't mean to interrupt.
00:19:40.118 --> 00:19:41.438
Yes, I thought I was funny.
00:19:41.438 --> 00:19:43.438
I mean, plus this is our dynamic.
00:19:43.438 --> 00:19:44.078
Yeah, this is.
00:19:45.318 --> 00:19:56.518
But yeah, The Ugly Stepsister is obviously a telling of the Cinderella story, but from the perspective of the quote unquote ugly stepsister.
00:19:56.578 --> 00:20:10.098
And this is, you know, basically a movie about beauty standards and kind of being body shamed for how you look because you don't stand out as one of the gritty girls and blah, blah, blah.
00:20:10.098 --> 00:20:16.238
And you just, I say the, it's a Norwegian or Finnish film, I believe, so it is subtitled.
00:20:16.238 --> 00:20:22.398
But I'd say the actress that plays Elvira, Leah Mirren, does an amazing job.
00:20:22.398 --> 00:20:34.858
She is, like, you feel so bad for her, like she is, she nails this role and it's basically a, I would kind of put this in the body horror aspect of, or genre of horror.
00:20:34.858 --> 00:20:41.138
I have heard that it's like, you know, people going, oh my God, this is the grossest thing and it's sick and depraved, blah, blah, blah.
00:20:41.138 --> 00:20:43.718
I watched it and it's not that bad.
00:20:43.718 --> 00:20:48.038
It does have a few moments where I was just like, oh, no, no, no.
00:20:48.038 --> 00:20:58.198
But all in all, it's kind of, if you're, if you're a fan of Cronenberg body horror, you've seen gooier type of body horror, to be fair.
00:20:58.198 --> 00:20:59.538
So what, should I watch it?
00:20:59.538 --> 00:21:02.098
Yes, I was just going to say, I do recommend this.
00:21:02.098 --> 00:21:03.098
I think this was good.
00:21:03.098 --> 00:21:07.958
It might be a little long in the tooth, but it is very good.
00:21:07.958 --> 00:21:11.938
I would say it's possibly a contender for my top 10.
00:21:11.938 --> 00:21:13.778
I really enjoyed it.
00:21:14.858 --> 00:21:20.538
I was actually hooked from the very beginning and the, like I said, the acting all around, amazing.
00:21:20.838 --> 00:21:35.898
I'm trying to put everything into words here, but like, and yeah, it follows the Cinderella story pretty accurately, except for it goes the Grimm's fairy tale story of Cinderella, instead of like, you know, the Disney happy style.
00:21:35.898 --> 00:21:46.678
So it's, if you know the Grimm fairy tale story, you know, there's a certain part when it comes to the shoe that happens to the ugly stepsister, and I'll leave it at that.
00:21:46.678 --> 00:21:48.798
But I found this to be a very good movie.
00:21:50.238 --> 00:21:57.058
Yeah, definitely not as horrific as I was expecting, but it definitely had Erika looking away quite a few times.
00:21:57.058 --> 00:21:57.658
Nice.
00:21:57.658 --> 00:21:59.158
Hey,
that's a good sign.
00:21:59.158 --> 00:22:13.238
And yeah, this one is available on Shutter, and I definitely recommend it, and it kind of fits along with our new award that we got going on with the whole public domain character movies that we're going to have.
00:22:13.238 --> 00:22:13.838
Excellent.
00:22:13.838 --> 00:22:14.538
You know what?
00:22:14.538 --> 00:22:15.998
I'm here for it.
00:22:15.998 --> 00:22:16.678
I know you are.
00:22:17.118 --> 00:22:18.058
I'm here for it.
00:22:18.058 --> 00:22:18.958
I'm going to watch it.
00:22:18.958 --> 00:22:20.358
And it's just on the Shuddy, right?
00:22:20.358 --> 00:22:21.698
Yep, on Shutter.
00:22:21.698 --> 00:22:22.398
Okay.
00:22:22.398 --> 00:22:23.638
You know, Shutter's at least bringing it.
00:22:23.638 --> 00:22:24.438
Thank you, Shutter.
00:22:24.678 --> 00:22:25.438
You're trying.
00:22:25.438 --> 00:22:27.418
You're bringing some different stuff.
00:22:27.418 --> 00:22:29.058
Yeah, exactly.
00:22:29.058 --> 00:22:31.658
There's this movie called Dead Mail.
00:22:31.698 --> 00:22:32.998
Oh, boy.
00:22:32.998 --> 00:22:34.158
Okay.
00:22:34.158 --> 00:22:42.298
An anonymous help note finds its way to a 1980s post office connecting a dead letter investigator to a kidnapped keyboard technician.
00:22:42.298 --> 00:22:43.998
Yes, that sounds as boring as it is.
00:22:46.858 --> 00:22:49.638
This movie is a 3.2 rating.
00:22:49.638 --> 00:22:52.558
Matt also talked about how boring this movie was.
00:22:52.558 --> 00:22:54.598
It's 106 minutes.
00:22:54.598 --> 00:22:56.158
It's available on Shutter.
00:22:56.418 --> 00:23:00.878
It's a Shutter original, I think, but it's also available on Apple TV.
00:23:00.878 --> 00:23:02.718
This movie was really, really smart.
00:23:02.718 --> 00:23:08.178
You know, it's a very smart movie, and I bet there's going to be people out there that fucking love this film.
00:23:08.178 --> 00:23:10.118
You know, they're going to be like, it was so good.
00:23:10.118 --> 00:23:12.598
It was so, you know, well acted, which it was.
00:23:12.958 --> 00:23:14.878
Very well acted, very well filmed.
00:23:14.878 --> 00:23:16.898
But Jesus Christ, it was boring.
00:23:16.898 --> 00:23:22.178
Like, Jesus Christ, it was like, I was like, I don't fucking care about these fucking letters.
00:23:22.178 --> 00:23:23.738
I don't fucking care.
00:23:23.738 --> 00:23:33.698
Like, it was just really like, I don't know, I really struggled getting through this one, which is a shame because I can tell it's a good film.
00:23:33.698 --> 00:23:37.058
You know, it's a well made, well acted movie.
00:23:37.058 --> 00:23:38.478
It just wasn't for me.
00:23:39.898 --> 00:23:48.758
I'm sure there's somebody out there that had the patience to go through this kind of film, but it kind of reminded me last year with Long Legs.
00:23:48.758 --> 00:23:51.378
Long Legs dragged out too.
00:23:51.378 --> 00:23:52.118
You know what I mean?
00:23:52.378 --> 00:23:54.858
And it kind of like it was very Oz Perkins.
00:23:54.858 --> 00:23:55.178
Yes.
00:23:55.198 --> 00:23:59.778
And you know, you got to be into that kind of thing to like that kind of film.
00:23:59.778 --> 00:24:04.058
And this kind of reminded me of that only not as good as something that Oz Perkins would do.
00:24:04.058 --> 00:24:14.118
And I don't know, if you like really slow burns and a lot of dialogue and 1980s aesthetic, this movie is for you.
00:24:14.118 --> 00:24:15.958
I don't suggest you watch it, Scott.
00:24:15.958 --> 00:24:20.518
Yeah, it does not sound like anything I would be interested in.
00:24:20.518 --> 00:24:25.338
No, it's just it's, you know, if this was 2020 and we had nothing else to do, I'd be like, sure.
00:24:25.338 --> 00:24:25.758
Right.
00:24:25.758 --> 00:24:26.738
Sure.
00:24:26.738 --> 00:24:28.618
But, you know, we have lives now.
00:24:28.678 --> 00:24:30.378
So, yeah.
00:24:30.378 --> 00:24:34.198
Oh, I feel like it just doesn't fall into the criteria.
00:24:34.238 --> 00:24:42.078
Especially with me, when it takes me about three to four hours to finish an hour and a half long movie.
00:24:43.178 --> 00:24:45.118
This is maybe that would it would take you out.
00:24:45.118 --> 00:24:53.698
But if anyone does want to see it and they're into what I talked about, it is available on the Shutter, Apple TV, and of course, AMC Plus.
00:24:53.698 --> 00:24:54.858
Did you watch Screamboat?
00:24:54.858 --> 00:24:55.918
I sure did.
00:24:55.918 --> 00:24:56.398
Nice.
00:24:56.398 --> 00:24:57.738
Let's hear your thoughts on Screamboat.
00:24:58.198 --> 00:24:58.578
All right.
00:24:58.578 --> 00:25:01.598
So yeah, Screamboat has 102-minute runtime.
00:25:01.598 --> 00:25:04.118
A scream is a wish your heart makes.
00:25:04.118 --> 00:25:12.778
A late night boat ride turns into a desperate fight for survival in New York City when a mischievous mouse becomes a monstrous reality.
00:25:12.778 --> 00:25:20.478
So this has been one that I've been super excited to see because it's David Howard Thornton playing Steamboat Willie.
00:25:20.478 --> 00:25:30.658
And it's, you know, David Howard Thornton as Art the Clown, and the way he does his expressions in mime style.
00:25:30.658 --> 00:25:32.738
So I was looking forward to it.
00:25:32.738 --> 00:25:35.418
I didn't know what really to expect.
00:25:35.418 --> 00:25:38.458
It ended up being just OK.
00:25:40.358 --> 00:25:42.818
Nothing wrong with David Howard Thornton's performance.
00:25:42.818 --> 00:25:46.078
He did amazing as Steamboat Willie.
00:25:46.078 --> 00:25:52.938
Like, the one thing I didn't expect was Steamboat Willie to be super tiny.
00:25:53.878 --> 00:26:07.298
I expected it to be full size, but he ended up being like a miniature version, which I'm guessing they somehow used a green screen, shrunk him down or a perspective thing, which I thought was cool how they did it, but it just took me out of it for a
second.
00:26:07.298 --> 00:26:09.318
Like, what the hell?
00:26:09.318 --> 00:26:13.618
Every character is absolutely unlikable in this movie.
00:26:14.858 --> 00:26:18.198
I did not care for a single character.
00:26:18.198 --> 00:26:19.958
Some of the gore was pretty good.
00:26:19.958 --> 00:26:20.478
Some of it was...
00:26:22.378 --> 00:26:35.978
I enjoyed myself for about the first half, and then it just kept going and going, and it felt like it wasn't going to end, and the gag kind of ran itself dry.
00:26:35.978 --> 00:26:46.178
It would have been fine if it was like an hour and 15 hour long movie, but it just, yeah, they drug it out, and it just was not that interesting to me, unfortunately.
00:26:46.178 --> 00:26:46.638
Thank God.
00:26:46.638 --> 00:26:48.478
David Howard Thornton, like I said, did amazing.
00:26:48.998 --> 00:26:50.958
He had me laughing quite a bit.
00:26:50.958 --> 00:26:56.618
There are a lot of nods to like little Disney references throughout the movie, which were fun to pick up on.
00:26:56.618 --> 00:26:59.818
But yeah, all in all, this was just, it was fine.
00:26:59.818 --> 00:27:04.398
It wasn't, it was definitely a disappointment compared to what I was hoping for.
00:27:04.398 --> 00:27:07.758
I think you said everything I needed to say, literally, ditto.
00:27:07.758 --> 00:27:12.518
Like, what you said sums up exactly my thoughts going into it, how I felt watching it.
00:27:12.518 --> 00:27:15.378
Yeah, it was much longer than it needed to be.
00:27:15.798 --> 00:27:29.098
Yeah, and like I was saying, when you don't have characters to be invested in and root for besides the killer himself, which can be fun for a short period, but like when it's drug out like that long, you just don't have like that much to connect to and you just lose interest.
00:27:29.098 --> 00:27:35.978
A hundred percent, you know, but if you, I don't know, I have a hard time recommending renting this.
00:27:35.978 --> 00:27:36.778
I really do.
00:27:36.778 --> 00:27:40.818
Yeah, I'd say like a $2.99 rental at most.
00:27:40.818 --> 00:27:44.518
Yeah, like it's available Apple TV, Amazon, Fandango.
00:27:44.518 --> 00:27:46.018
Maybe wait till this is on 2B.
00:27:46.018 --> 00:27:47.678
Eventually, it's going to be on 2B.
00:27:47.678 --> 00:27:48.238
Just wait.
00:27:48.238 --> 00:27:49.798
You don't need to see it this year.
00:27:49.798 --> 00:27:51.018
Yeah, don't rush out.
00:27:51.018 --> 00:27:53.318
Yeah, like it was a disappointment.
00:27:53.318 --> 00:27:54.858
I agree with you.
00:27:56.398 --> 00:27:57.898
Yeah, did you see Freelance?
00:27:57.898 --> 00:27:58.918
I did not.
00:27:58.918 --> 00:28:00.778
OK.
00:28:00.778 --> 00:28:01.558
So Freelance.
00:28:01.558 --> 00:28:04.858
So this one came out last year, Film Festival.
00:28:04.858 --> 00:28:09.038
It's been picked up for wide release this year.
00:28:09.038 --> 00:28:11.078
It's not paranoia if it's real.
00:28:11.538 --> 00:28:22.518
When a down on her luck video editor takes on a mysterious well-paying job cutting snuff films, she is haunted by the visions of people in her videos.
00:28:22.518 --> 00:28:30.078
So the interesting thing about this is that you're not sure at first if the snuff films are real or not real.
00:28:30.078 --> 00:28:38.978
So throughout the whole thing, it's basically her trying to figure out what is real and what is not, because at the beginning she's editing porn, which we all know is fake.
00:28:38.978 --> 00:28:52.878
I know for some of those listeners today, they are shocked that those stepsisters and stepbrothers, when they come home from the military, aren't necessarily, I'm sure some of them are having sex, but not to the same variety that porn hub has made us believe.
00:28:52.878 --> 00:28:54.938
What about the pool guy and pizza guy?
00:28:54.938 --> 00:28:55.898
That's not real?
00:28:55.898 --> 00:29:00.898
That's apparently not how you play for pizzas, because I've tried and they consist on money.
00:29:00.898 --> 00:29:03.078
I know, they're like, look man, things are hard.
00:29:03.078 --> 00:29:06.058
Can you just give me the fucking money?
00:29:06.058 --> 00:29:08.978
So I really do think this is a unique concept.
00:29:09.458 --> 00:29:12.698
It's not a found footage film, which I appreciated.
00:29:12.698 --> 00:29:16.518
I thought that that was kind of a nice change.
00:29:16.518 --> 00:29:20.318
I wasn't sure if they were going to do more of like a found footage from this, but they didn't.
00:29:20.318 --> 00:29:21.458
I do think it's interesting.
00:29:21.458 --> 00:29:23.278
I do think it's worth a watch for you, Scott.
00:29:23.278 --> 00:29:28.358
I don't know if how Erica will feel about it, but it is interesting.
00:29:28.358 --> 00:29:31.138
It is a little long at 110 minutes.
00:29:31.138 --> 00:29:34.058
I think that this could have been a 90 minute film.
00:29:35.898 --> 00:29:44.878
But that being said, I do think they built on the characters and what was happening, but they do leave a little bit of confusion at the end.
00:29:44.878 --> 00:29:57.318
But if you like the whole kind of is this real or is it not real kind of thing and someone exploring whether they think it's a reality or not, then you can check this out.
00:29:57.318 --> 00:30:02.598
It is available on Amazon, Apple TV, Google Play, YouTube, and Microsoft Store.
00:30:03.138 --> 00:30:03.998
All right.
00:30:03.998 --> 00:30:05.398
Yeah, that's sound interesting.
00:30:05.398 --> 00:30:07.858
Yeah, I would say watch it if you have the time.
00:30:07.858 --> 00:30:08.298
All right.
00:30:08.298 --> 00:30:08.578
Sweet.
00:30:08.578 --> 00:30:10.238
Yeah, I'll definitely do that.
00:30:10.238 --> 00:30:11.058
What is the next one?
00:30:11.058 --> 00:30:11.358
All right.
00:30:11.358 --> 00:30:13.478
The next one is me because you have not watched this show.
00:30:13.478 --> 00:30:15.138
I have not.
00:30:15.138
--> 00:30:23.398
So Netflix just dropped on Friday, which would have been May 22nd, I want to say.
00:30:23.398 --> 00:30:25.298
Fear Street Prom Queen.
00:30:25.298 --> 00:30:32.238
So the next Fear Street movie in the series and based off the Prom Queen book, Winning Just Might Be the Death of You.
00:30:32.778 --> 00:30:36.678
Who Will Be Voted Queen at Shadyside High's 1988 Prom?
00:30:36.678 --> 00:30:42.678
For underdog Laurie, competition is cutthroat even before someone starts killing off the candidates.
00:30:42.678 --> 00:30:46.038
This has got a 90-minute runtime.
00:30:46.038 --> 00:30:48.298
Just that beautiful sweet spot.
00:30:48.298 --> 00:30:48.698
Nice.
00:30:48.698 --> 00:30:49.678
Thank you, Millie.
00:30:49.678 --> 00:30:50.038
Thank you.
00:30:50.038 --> 00:30:51.018
Yeah.
00:30:51.018 --> 00:30:53.178
This was a lot of fun.
00:30:53.218 --> 00:30:57.578
This went back to the like 80s style.
00:30:57.578 --> 00:30:58.778
It has the 80s music.
00:30:58.778 --> 00:31:01.818
Like, you know, remember how I was making fun of like Yeah.
00:31:01.818 --> 00:31:05.378
your screen about how it always like, hey, you remember this song?
00:31:05.378 --> 00:31:06.518
You remember this song?
00:31:06.518 --> 00:31:07.958
You remember this song?
00:31:07.958 --> 00:31:15.978
This has it, but it seems like they kind of toned it back a little bit and only had it like majority of it at like the prom, which made sense.
00:31:15.978 --> 00:31:17.518
And but yeah, it was based in the 80s.
00:31:18.058 --> 00:31:29.518
And the characters were cheesy to unlikable to just kind of that nice mix of like that teeny slashy style horror film.
00:31:29.518 --> 00:31:31.658
And this is definitely a slasher.
00:31:31.658 --> 00:31:34.238
Some fucking awesome kills.
00:31:34.238 --> 00:31:35.878
I was really impressed.
00:31:35.878 --> 00:31:37.238
Like kind of reminded me.
00:31:37.238 --> 00:31:43.098
I'm like, oh yeah, I forgot the Fear Street Trilogy had some really fucking kick ass kills too.
00:31:43.098 --> 00:31:47.278
So yeah, they went all out with the gore and the kills in this.
00:31:47.278 --> 00:32:06.958
The reveal on the whodunit of the killer and all that, not surprising, but all around, this was just a very fun 80s themed slasher and set during that prom setting where, you know, of course they over glamorize prom and everything like that to the extent that they do in movies.
00:32:07.718 --> 00:32:14.238
It felt like a just felt like a new adaptation of Prom Night and just nailed that aesthetic.
00:32:14.238 --> 00:32:14.838
Okay.
00:32:14.838 --> 00:32:16.898
So check it out on Netflix if you have it.
00:32:16.898 --> 00:32:17.858
Yes, highly recommend.
00:32:17.858 --> 00:32:19.778
This was a very fun slasher.
00:32:19.778 --> 00:32:25.358
I'm excited to hear this because Netflix doesn't always released a lot of good domestic stuff.
00:32:25.358 --> 00:32:25.678
Yes.
00:32:25.678 --> 00:32:29.138
So it's nice to hear that that's come out of Netflix.
00:32:29.138 --> 00:32:30.258
That's good news.
00:32:30.258 --> 00:32:34.498
Yeah, this is if you like the other Fear Street movies, I think you'll dig this one.
00:32:34.558 --> 00:32:34.918
Excellent.
00:32:34.918 --> 00:32:37.718
I may watch it tonight.
00:32:37.718 --> 00:32:39.638
Did you see this one, Hell of the Summer?
00:32:39.638 --> 00:32:40.278
I started it.
00:32:40.278 --> 00:32:41.398
I have not finished it.
00:32:41.398 --> 00:32:42.058
Okay.
00:32:42.058 --> 00:32:45.078
So I'll be careful with how much I talk about it then.
00:32:45.078 --> 00:32:50.778
Finn Wolfhard is the director behind this along with Billy Break.
00:32:50.778 --> 00:32:51.798
Take your body bags.
00:32:51.798 --> 00:33:01.658
When 24-year-old Jason Hochberg arrives for the counselor weekend and his beloved camp hideaway, his biggest problem is feeling out of touch with his teenage coworkers.
00:33:01.658 --> 00:33:07.678
Little does he knows, a mass killer has murdered the camp owners, John and Kathy, and is preparing to strike again.
00:33:07.678 --> 00:33:11.858
So this is very much like a throwback to Camp Slashers.
00:33:13.098 --> 00:33:15.098
I thought it was a really interesting film.
00:33:15.098 --> 00:33:23.018
I do think they drag, again, this is another example of where they dragged this movie out longer than needed, and it was even 88 minutes new, and then I kind of felt like parts of it was right out.
00:33:23.378 --> 00:33:24.958
Oh, jeez, that's not good.
00:33:24.958 --> 00:33:29.138
But generally speaking, I did find it entertaining.
00:33:29.138 --> 00:33:32.178
I did find it cool as a little slasher.
00:33:33.238 --> 00:33:34.278
I know Tim didn't like it.
00:33:34.278 --> 00:33:39.478
He thought that the story was bland and the kills were off screen and not creative.
00:33:39.478 --> 00:33:41.638
Yeah, I think that's a fair critique.
00:33:42.998 --> 00:33:52.078
I liked the beginning probably the most in some of the dialogue I did think was kind of funny, and it kind of picked up towards the end, but it was definitely kind of mediocre.
00:33:52.658 --> 00:34:05.318
It sounds like Fear Street is a better slasher than this was, which is a shame, because I think this had really good parts in it, and then it just dipped, and really good parts, and then it dipped, and I think that's heard in the long haul.
00:34:05.318 --> 00:34:17.358
But if people are slasher completists, or they want to see what the kid from Stranger Things has done, you can check it out on Google Play, Plex, YouTube, Amazon Video, and Fandango.
00:34:17.358 --> 00:34:31.558
Again, these are all run-team services, so I would say you have to really be into like the camp aesthetic of a slasher, or really want to see what Finn Wolfhard can do.
00:34:31.558 --> 00:34:34.018
Like that would kind of have to be the reason to watch this.
00:34:34.018 --> 00:34:38.798
I don't think it's going to end
up on anybody's top 10s or anything like that.
00:34:38.798 --> 00:34:40.298
Okay, I kind of figured.
00:34:40.298 --> 00:34:41.498
Yeah.
00:34:41.498 --> 00:34:42.458
The next one.
00:34:42.458 --> 00:34:43.358
Did you see this?
00:34:43.358 --> 00:34:44.158
Yes, I did.
00:34:44.178 --> 00:34:45.638
Oh, Jesus Christ.
00:34:45.638 --> 00:34:47.278
Okay.
00:34:47.278 --> 00:34:48.438
Do you want to talk about it?
00:34:48.478 --> 00:34:50.078
Yeah, I'll bring this one in.
00:34:50.118 --> 00:34:51.558
Okay.
00:34:51.558 --> 00:34:55.418
So this one is a drop with a 95-minute runtime.
00:34:55.418 --> 00:34:57.118
Everyone's a suspect.
00:34:57.118 --> 00:35:06.658
Violet, a widowed mother on her first date in years, arrives at an upscale restaurant where she is relieved that her date, Henry, is more charming and handsome than she expected.
00:35:06.658 --> 00:35:16.138
But their chemistry begins to curdle as Violet begins being irritated and then terrorized by a series of anonymous drops to her phone.
00:35:16.718 --> 00:35:21.498
Um, yeah, this was very just okay.
00:35:21.498 --> 00:35:26.018
Like, yeah, it was literally just the epitome of okay film.
00:35:26.018 --> 00:35:33.618
Like, Eric and I watched it, and we're just like, uh, one thing we did say was, girl, this date of yours is Prince fucking charming.
00:35:33.618 --> 00:35:37.098
Because if I was him, I would have left hours ago.
00:35:37.098 --> 00:35:41.998
The way you are acting, the way everything is going, he must really fucking like you.
00:35:42.038 --> 00:35:43.658
Because he must really want to get laid.
00:35:43.658 --> 00:35:44.458
Jesus.
00:35:44.458 --> 00:35:44.938
Yeah.
00:35:44.938 --> 00:35:47.978
But I found like the acting to be fine.
00:35:47.978 --> 00:35:49.678
There was it.
00:35:49.678 --> 00:35:52.358
The story was ridiculous.
00:35:53.758 --> 00:35:58.558
And a lot of the plot did not make sense with what's going on.
00:35:58.558 --> 00:36:01.698
And like, wasn't very feasible.
00:36:01.698 --> 00:36:07.458
But yeah, it just, it was, it was a way to pass the time that evening.
00:36:07.458 --> 00:36:09.818
That it didn't overstay its welcome.
00:36:09.898 --> 00:36:12.098
I will give it that, the 95-minute run time.
00:36:12.498 --> 00:36:14.358
It went by rather quickly.
00:36:14.358 --> 00:36:18.978
I was watching and wasn't completely bored.
00:36:18.978 --> 00:36:23.978
So, you know, like I say, it's in that mediocre middle of the line.
00:36:23.978 --> 00:36:26.378
If you like, this isn't really even horror.
00:36:26.378 --> 00:36:32.438
If you like thrillers that are kind of lifetime-y, that I'd say to check this out.
00:36:32.438 --> 00:36:37.438
But otherwise, it's not anything to write home about or worth watching.
00:36:37.438 --> 00:36:38.958
It's not going to make anybody's top 10.
00:36:39.158 --> 00:36:41.038
Or if it does, I'll be shocked.
00:36:41.038 --> 00:36:45.938
Yeah, I feel like you took the words
right out of my mouth.
00:36:45.938 --> 00:36:48.338
This, I was annoyed with her.
00:36:48.338 --> 00:36:50.058
Yeah.
00:36:50.058 --> 00:36:50.638
Like, come on.
00:36:50.638 --> 00:36:52.998
And it was so, it was so Blumhouse.
00:36:52.998 --> 00:36:53.998
It was so Blumhouse.
00:36:53.998 --> 00:36:55.698
I keep forgetting it was Blumhouse.
00:36:55.698 --> 00:36:57.738
Like, it was so over-the-top sensational.
00:36:57.738 --> 00:37:01.738
And yes, was it entertaining and turn-off-your-brain fun?
00:37:01.818 --> 00:37:02.238
Sure.
00:37:02.298 --> 00:37:02.458
100%.
00:37:03.678 --> 00:37:07.978
You gotta be in turn-off-your-brain fun to watch this movie.
00:37:07.978 --> 00:37:08.278
Yes.
00:37:08.278 --> 00:37:10.518
Because it makes no sense.
00:37:10.518 --> 00:37:16.318
It, like, and then, like, the ending, how she all of a sudden is this badass.
00:37:16.318 --> 00:37:17.038
You know what I mean?
00:37:17.038 --> 00:37:17.558
Yeah.
00:37:17.558 --> 00:37:19.718
Stupid fucking diehard shit.
00:37:19.718 --> 00:37:21.878
That's not Bruce Willis, so it doesn't work.
00:37:21.878 --> 00:37:23.158
This is 2015.
00:37:24.878 --> 00:37:26.818
But hey, you know what?
00:37:26.818 --> 00:37:30.278
It filled a hole for 93 minutes, and it was entertaining enough.
00:37:30.798 --> 00:37:33.278
And I love it when my hole gets filled.
00:37:33.278 --> 00:37:34.658
Right.
00:37:34.658 --> 00:37:35.538
Right.
00:37:35.538 --> 00:37:37.418
So, yeah.
00:37:37.418 --> 00:37:39.498
Like, I'm glad I didn't go to theatre to see this.
00:37:39.498 --> 00:37:40.118
I would have been pissed.
00:37:40.118 --> 00:37:40.778
Me too.
00:37:40.778 --> 00:37:41.338
I would have been.
00:37:41.338 --> 00:37:42.318
But I kind of knew it.
00:37:42.318 --> 00:37:43.678
I'm like, this doesn't look good.
00:37:43.678 --> 00:37:48.998
I'm only going to theatres to see this if, like, I'm super bored and I need something to do.
00:37:48.998 --> 00:37:56.318
So anyway, if you like, that's very, I don't know, this would be a great horror film to show someone who's actually liked action movies.
00:37:56.358 --> 00:37:59.978
You would probably like this, and they're in, like, paint-by-number action movies.
00:37:59.978 --> 00:38:04.878
It's on Amazon, Apple TV, Google Play, Amazon, Cineplex here in Canada.
00:38:04.878 --> 00:38:06.878
That's the only reason I would recommend watching it.
00:38:06.878 --> 00:38:09.898
It's not that good.
00:38:09.958 --> 00:38:11.618
It's a Blumhouse movie.
00:38:11.618 --> 00:38:14.638
Yeah, it is mediocre at its finest.
00:38:14.638 --> 00:38:16.518
Right.
00:38:16.518 --> 00:38:18.078
So yeah.
00:38:18.078 --> 00:38:19.838
I'm assuming you haven't seen Uncontained.
00:38:19.838 --> 00:38:20.578
Nope.
00:38:20.578 --> 00:38:21.738
That's another one I've seen.
00:38:21.738 --> 00:38:22.658
Oh, you have?
00:38:22.658 --> 00:38:23.178
Yes.
00:38:23.178 --> 00:38:24.178
Speaking of mediocre.
00:38:24.798 --> 00:38:25.458
Yes.
00:38:25.498 --> 00:38:28.478
That's a great way to describe this one too.
00:38:28.478 --> 00:38:30.098
Do you want to bling it in?
00:38:30.098 --> 00:38:30.538
Sure.
00:38:30.538 --> 00:38:32.518
So I think I've watched more than you, right?
00:38:32.938 --> 00:38:33.498
You might have.
00:38:33.838 --> 00:38:35.278
I don't know.
00:38:35.278 --> 00:38:36.238
Uncontained.
00:38:36.238 --> 00:38:38.178
It's got a 99-minute runtime.
00:38:38.178 --> 00:38:49.258
In the wintry forests of North America, a mysterious drifter struggles to protect an abandoned boy and his little sister from an infection that turns people into a feral-like state.
00:38:49.258 --> 00:38:50.558
I'm trying to remember a lot of this.
00:38:51.558 --> 00:38:58.138
I remember the first, I'd say, 30 to 40 minutes, I was intrigued.
00:38:58.138 --> 00:39:13.178
The mystery of it all, the kind of terror I felt for the little kids, because this is basically a zombie scenario, and these little kids are by themselves, and you're led to believe they're left alone and this and that.
00:39:13.178 --> 00:39:27.158
And then there's just this, I guess you would say, Native American character, if it is an American film, I'm not sure, but that is kind of a straggler, that's just kind of surviving out in the wilderness, that comes along and meets this family as well.
00:39:27.158 --> 00:39:31.178
And he just kind of tries to take care of the kids.
00:39:31.178 --> 00:39:45.178
And then it just kind of gets really boring, really, really boring, and then turns into this weird, like, kind of action sci-fi thing by the third act.
00:39:45.178 --> 00:39:48.178
And I just, I didn't understand it.
00:39:48.278 --> 00:39:51.998
The reasoning behind it, it just, it fell flat on its face.
00:39:51.998 --> 00:39:54.858
That is, again, I feel like you're taking the words out of my mouth today.
00:39:54.858 --> 00:39:57.098
I was so hopeful at the beginning.
00:39:57.098 --> 00:39:58.798
Yeah, like, started off real strong.
00:39:58.798 --> 00:40:01.398
Yeah, like, I thought it would be really, really interesting.
00:40:01.398 --> 00:40:02.578
And then it got weird.
00:40:02.578 --> 00:40:03.098
Yeah.
00:40:03.098 --> 00:40:08.398
Like, if they had just continued in the Choo Choo Train route that they were on, then it would have been much better.
00:40:08.398 --> 00:40:09.798
Yeah, when the mother shows up.
00:40:09.798 --> 00:40:12.698
Yeah, like, and then it went kind of fucking weird.
00:40:12.698 --> 00:40:14.318
And I agree with you.
00:40:14.318 --> 00:40:16.738
It's a shame because there was a lot of potential here.
00:40:18.218 --> 00:40:24.238
Especially with the route they were kind of taking with like a post-apocalyptic world.
00:40:24.238 --> 00:40:24.918
Yeah.
00:40:24.918 --> 00:40:25.398
Right.
00:40:25.398 --> 00:40:30.858
But it was, I don't know, it ended up just being odd and not making a lot of sense.
00:40:30.858
--> 00:40:32.298
I don't even know who would...
00:40:32.298 --> 00:40:38.018
Like, it's only available from rent from the usual suspects, Apple TV, Google Play, YouTube.
00:40:38.018 --> 00:40:39.258
Who would you recommend this to?
00:40:39.258 --> 00:40:40.778
No one.
00:40:40.778 --> 00:40:42.338
Yeah, I guess that's a fair statement.
00:40:42.338 --> 00:40:43.498
I really would agree with you.
00:40:46.158 --> 00:40:49.338
I can't think of anyone that would care for this.
00:40:49.338 --> 00:40:54.878
Like, it might get Tim's attention kind of like us for the first half, because it involves kids.
00:40:54.878 --> 00:40:55.258
Yeah.
00:40:55.258 --> 00:40:58.118
But I think after that, he'd just be like, fuck it.
00:40:58.118 --> 00:41:00.118
So Tim, if you watch this, let us know.
00:41:00.118 --> 00:41:02.478
But it's called Uncontained.
00:41:02.478 --> 00:41:03.038
Yeah.
00:41:03.258 --> 00:41:05.178
It definitely was.
00:41:07.678 --> 00:41:07.938
Yeah.
00:41:07.938 --> 00:41:09.798
No bueno.
00:41:09.798 --> 00:41:11.778
The next one, though, was, I don't know.
00:41:11.778 --> 00:41:14.238
I was also disappointed by this movie.
00:41:14.238 --> 00:41:15.538
Really?
00:41:15.538 --> 00:41:16.758
Oh, man.
00:41:16.758 --> 00:41:19.158
Like, why does Paul Rudd keep getting work?
00:41:19.158 --> 00:41:20.158
I'm sorry.
00:41:20.158 --> 00:41:23.398
Like, he was so miscast in this.
00:41:24.658 --> 00:41:26.118
Yeah, I could see it.
00:41:26.118 --> 00:41:26.498
Fuck.
00:41:26.498 --> 00:41:27.938
And him and Jenna Ortega.
00:41:27.938 --> 00:41:29.898
Oh, my God.
00:41:29.898 --> 00:41:31.978
Oh, thank God for who was it.
00:41:32.058 --> 00:41:34.678
I think that Will Poulter, all right.
00:41:34.678 --> 00:41:36.498
Like fucking thank God for Richard E.
00:41:36.498 --> 00:41:38.838
Glant and Tia Leone.
00:41:38.838 --> 00:41:41.678
Like to me, they made it bearable.
00:41:41.678 --> 00:41:44.318
We're talking about death of a unicorn.
00:41:44.318 --> 00:41:45.498
Payback is a beast.
00:41:45.498 --> 00:41:52.538
A father and a daughter accidentally hit and kill a unicorn while en route to a weekend retreat, whereas billionaire boss seeks to exploit the creatures.
00:41:52.538 --> 00:41:55.738
Miracle-ist creative properties.
00:41:55.738 --> 00:41:57.518
First of all, I love that it was unicorns.
00:41:57.518 --> 00:41:58.238
I'm going to say that.
00:41:58.238 --> 00:41:59.298
Unicorns were fucking cool.
00:42:00.218 --> 00:42:04.598
If you like unicorns, watch this fucking movie because that shit's cool.
00:42:04.598 --> 00:42:09.578
But Jesus Christ, I really wanted Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega to be killed.
00:42:10.638 --> 00:42:13.578
And what world does she look like she's young enough to be his daughter?
00:42:14.758 --> 00:42:19.718
Well, according to Tim, he thinks that she looks way too young.
00:42:19.738 --> 00:42:20.978
Sure, and that's fine.
00:42:20.978 --> 00:42:21.598
I get that.
00:42:21.598 --> 00:42:24.458
But I don't know.
00:42:24.458 --> 00:42:25.438
It was fine.
00:42:25.438 --> 00:42:26.178
Sorry, go ahead.
00:42:26.178 --> 00:42:26.858
I was like, it's funny.
00:42:26.978 --> 00:42:30.338
Your reaction to this is complete opposite of mine.
00:42:30.338 --> 00:42:35.018
Well, I enjoyed the unicorn piece of it, and I enjoyed the story.
00:42:35.018 --> 00:42:40.338
I'll be honest, I enjoyed the story, and I enjoyed everyone but Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega.
00:42:40.338 --> 00:42:42.418
I enjoyed everybody but them.
00:42:42.418 --> 00:42:47.058
I wish they had cast other people for this role, because otherwise, I really like this movie.
00:42:47.058 --> 00:42:50.598
And I will definitely say I recommend it to people, because I think it's a lot of fun.
00:42:50.598 --> 00:42:53.738
And I think Will Poulter is fucking awesome in it.
00:42:53.738 --> 00:42:54.518
I think he's funny.
00:42:54.518 --> 00:42:56.258
I think he's a great antagonist.
00:42:56.398 --> 00:42:58.458
I think he's fucking great.
00:42:58.458 --> 00:43:02.818
Honestly, remove Jenna Ortega and Paul Rudd, and this movie is like a 10 out of 10.
00:43:02.818 --> 00:43:04.618
So that's my thoughts.
00:43:04.618 --> 00:43:14.638
Yeah, see, I didn't hate them in their roles, but also they didn't bring anything special to the table, Paul Rudd or Jenna Ortega.
00:43:14.638 --> 00:43:18.698
They were just kind of the, we're here characters.
00:43:18.698 --> 00:43:21.218
The names to sell the movie, basically.
00:43:21.218 --> 00:43:28.678
But yeah, I was laughing throughout most of this, because like you said, Will Poulter, fucking great, and this nailed his role.
00:43:28.678 --> 00:43:30.678
The Unicorns were badass looking.
00:43:30.678 --> 00:43:37.018
A little too CGI in some aspects, but this was one of those where I just had a lot of fun with it again.
00:43:37.018 --> 00:43:45.678
Like this past month or so since we've recorded, I seem to have gotten a hold of the movies that I'm just going, I'm actually having a good time with 2025.
00:43:45.678 --> 00:43:48.218
They may not be the best movies, but I'm having a good time.
00:43:48.258 --> 00:43:52.718
Yes, and this is definitely one of those where I could easily rewatch it.
00:43:52.718 --> 00:43:56.498
I wouldn't, I'm skeptical, I'm hard to say that this would be in my top 10.
00:43:56.498 --> 00:44:01.138
I'd say this might be top 20 material for me, but I had fun with it.
00:44:01.138 --> 00:44:08.158
Yeah, I didn't have the issues that you did with Paul and Jenna, but at the same time, they were just filling characters.
00:44:08.158 --> 00:44:12.458
They really didn't, they could have been cast, anybody could have been cast in that role basically.
00:44:12.458 --> 00:44:13.458
That's the thing, right?
00:44:13.458 --> 00:44:16.358
And I just don't feel like Paul Wright was, I don't think he's a good actor.
00:44:16.358 --> 00:44:16.778
I'm sorry.
00:44:17.418 --> 00:44:18.198
I don't, I don't-
00:44:18.498 --> 00:44:20.218
He plays the same character over and over again.
00:44:20.218 --> 00:44:27.138
Yeah, like I just didn't get the point, but I did love the Unicorn story, and I loved watching Unicorns fuck people up.
00:44:27.858 --> 00:44:34.718
Yeah, I love the aspect of them changing color, would be pissed and stuff like that.
00:44:34.718 --> 00:44:36.518
Totally, like all that shit I loved.
00:44:36.518 --> 00:44:43.098
Like, just to be clear, a big part of this movie I loved, but I felt like the two leads really took me out of it at times.
00:44:44.818 --> 00:44:49.278
And that can have a big effect if the two main leads are taking it out for you.
00:44:49.278 --> 00:44:50.558
Yeah, yeah.
00:44:50.558 --> 00:44:56.758
And I think that's why I was so disappointed a little bit, because I was really excited, because I love Unicorns, I love the myth of them.
00:44:56.758 --> 00:45:02.318
Like, I had Unicorn posters all over my bedroom as a kid, still do as an adult, just kidding.
00:45:02.318 --> 00:45:04.298
I got a Unicorn tattoo on my ass.
00:45:04.298 --> 00:45:04.898
Oh, nice.
00:45:04.898 --> 00:45:07.338
See, there you go.
00:45:07.338 --> 00:45:09.278
And Erica's like, that's the man I'm going to marry.
00:45:11.758 --> 00:45:15.358
So, but yeah, I think it's worth watching, definitely.
00:45:15.358 --> 00:45:16.738
Like, I think it's worth the rental.
00:45:16.738 --> 00:45:21.958
It's on all, like, Amazon, Apple TV, Plex, Cineplex, like, in Canada, Cineplex.
00:45:21.958 --> 00:45:22.878
Definitely check it out.
00:45:22.878 --> 00:45:24.378
I don't think people will be disappointed.
00:45:24.378 --> 00:45:28.598
Like, I'm sure no one will hate Paul Wright as much as I did, or Jenna Ortega.
00:45:28.598 --> 00:45:29.898
I just found them so flat.
00:45:29.898 --> 00:45:30.958
Just so flat.
00:45:30.958 --> 00:45:31.658
No chemistry.
00:45:31.658 --> 00:45:33.498
I'm like, what the fuck are these two in here?
00:45:33.778 --> 00:45:35.798
Like, all the secondary characters were better.
00:45:36.038 --> 00:45:37.738
Even the butler was better.
00:45:37.738 --> 00:45:40.058
Yes, the butler was my favorite character.
00:45:40.058 --> 00:45:42.478
Like, Jesus, everyone but them made the movie good.
00:45:42.478 --> 00:45:43.778
I'll be honest.
00:45:43.778 --> 00:45:44.778
Yeah, that's fair.
00:45:44.778 --> 00:45:47.118
That is a fair critique.
00:45:47.118 --> 00:45:48.618
So the next one is...
00:45:48.618 --> 00:45:49.798
Have you seen this next one?
00:45:49.798 --> 00:45:51.738
For fuck's sake, yes, I have.
00:45:51.738 --> 00:45:53.738
Did you really?
00:45:53.738 --> 00:45:54.858
Well, I'm sorry.
00:45:54.858 --> 00:45:57.178
Yeah.
00:45:57.178 --> 00:45:57.478
Okay.
00:45:57.478 --> 00:45:59.758
Well, this movie is called Don't Peek.
00:45:59.858 --> 00:46:00.738
Don't Watch.
00:46:00.738 --> 00:46:01.798
Don't Watch.
00:46:01.798
--> 00:46:03.118
We won't be long with this one.
00:46:03.118 --> 00:46:11.938
A professional YouTubeing couple whose career is starting to fray their marriage, which they record everything as their marriage is falling apart, which doesn't make a lot of sense.
00:46:11.938 --> 00:46:12.538
Yeah.
00:46:12.538 --> 00:46:14.258
Could you be that obsessed with YouTube anyway?
00:46:14.258 --> 00:46:20.078
Because I've seen YouTube couples or Facebook couples that make their money off of being a couple.
00:46:20.078 --> 00:46:21.758
You usually don't see the bad shit.
00:46:21.758 --> 00:46:23.458
They're usually pretty filtered with that.
00:46:23.458 --> 00:46:35.378
But anyway, they grapple how to leverage discovery that the previous owner of their new home was not only a serial killer, but taped his crimes, but also believed his victims were haunting him.
00:46:35.378 --> 00:46:39.418
These people watched Creep and thought they could do something that was like that.
00:46:39.418 --> 00:46:40.418
That's what happened.
00:46:40.418 --> 00:46:42.758
Without knowing how to fucking-
00:46:42.758 --> 00:46:43.678
Yes.
00:46:43.678 --> 00:46:44.378
Write a movie.
00:46:44.378 --> 00:46:55.458
Well, write a movie and without knowing how to edit your sound design to not crackle and blare out your speakers when the antagonist is there.
00:46:55.698 --> 00:47:02.918
Like when the antagonist has his video, oh my god, that was grating to my ears, because it's like ten times louder than the couples.
00:47:02.918 --> 00:47:11.958
And then it had like that staticky, I don't know if it was just our copy that we had or what, but god, sound design was awful and made it just horrible to listen to.
00:47:12.058 --> 00:47:13.458
I could not agree more.
00:47:13.698 --> 00:47:18.598
The characters were dumb, the villain was dumb, this was just dumb all the way.
00:47:18.598 --> 00:47:21.238
I just did not have fun.
00:47:21.278 --> 00:47:31.078
There is our friend Esme Gray, which is our friend Jason Gray, who has came out and said that he prefers to be called Esme.
00:47:31.078 --> 00:47:32.138
Oh, very nice.
00:47:32.138 --> 00:47:33.278
They prefer or she.
00:47:33.838 --> 00:47:38.778
I'm not sure the pronouns of me, I'm sorry if it's she or they, but let me know.
00:47:38.778 --> 00:47:39.978
I want to be respectful.
00:47:39.978 --> 00:47:41.578
I appreciate that.
00:47:41.578 --> 00:47:43.938
But I noticed they had a good time with it.
00:47:43.978 --> 00:47:45.278
But yeah, this was not something that...
00:47:45.278 --> 00:47:53.398
Esme would go into this movie and would get it better than we would and would look at it as a great entry-level found footage.
00:47:53.398 --> 00:47:56.458
And Scott and I are just tired and we can't use Skype.
00:47:56.458 --> 00:47:58.418
Yes.
00:47:58.418 --> 00:47:59.138
Okay.
00:47:59.138 --> 00:48:00.798
We're too old fogey.
00:48:00.798 --> 00:48:05.278
We're elder millennials and we're tired,
so tired.
00:48:05.278 --> 00:48:05.998
So tired.
00:48:05.998 --> 00:48:07.578
So tired.
00:48:07.578 --> 00:48:11.978
So Esme, thank you for keeping found footage live alive.
00:48:12.938 --> 00:48:14.058
Scott and I didn't like this.
00:48:14.058 --> 00:48:16.478
Yeah, it was not my jam.
00:48:16.478 --> 00:48:17.538
But it is available on Tubi.
00:48:17.538 --> 00:48:18.358
So here's the thing.
00:48:18.358 --> 00:48:19.018
Here's the thing.
00:48:19.018 --> 00:48:20.618
This is available on Tubi.
00:48:21.078 --> 00:48:26.738
So if you are a found footage completist and you would like to see a found footage and you want to all found footage, then watch it.
00:48:26.738 --> 00:48:27.638
It is on Tubi.
00:48:27.638 --> 00:48:29.158
If you are not, skip this one.
00:48:29.158 --> 00:48:29.738
Yes.
00:48:29.738 --> 00:48:32.558
I was going to say, Tubi is a good place for it.
00:48:32.558 --> 00:48:34.858
Like it belongs there.
00:48:34.858 --> 00:48:39.838
And I'm not saying that in a bad way, it just belongs there, because it's like something that you can just kind of turn on.
00:48:39.838 --> 00:48:42.118
And you may like it, you may not.
00:48:42.118 --> 00:48:43.998
I was not a fan.
00:48:43.998 --> 00:48:44.818
Yeah.
00:48:44.818 --> 00:48:45.678
Yeah.
00:48:45.678 --> 00:48:51.278
Now, the next one, this is where Scott and I are going to be snobby dicks.
00:48:51.278 --> 00:48:51.978
Maybe.
00:48:51.978 --> 00:48:58.758
Well, because there's a lot of people out there that think, Oh, yes, it's the first time this has been done.
00:48:58.758 --> 00:48:59.718
Yeah.
00:48:59.718 --> 00:49:01.438
So you want me to bring this one in?
00:49:01.438 --> 00:49:02.678
Yeah, you bring this in.
00:49:02.678 --> 00:49:03.478
All right.
00:49:03.478 --> 00:49:04.998
So the movie is locked.
00:49:06.218 --> 00:49:10.878
It's got a 95-minute runtime, no escape, no mercy, just survival.
00:49:10.878 --> 00:49:20.358
When Eddie breaks into a luxury SUV, he steps into a deadly trap set by William, a self-proclaimed vigilante delivering his own brand of twisted justice.
00:49:20.358 --> 00:49:25.358
With no means of escape, Eddie must fight to survive in a ride where escape is an illusion.
00:49:25.358 --> 00:49:29.958
Survival is a nightmare and justice shifts into high gear.
00:49:29.958 --> 00:49:38.218
So, yeah, this is if a lot of people might not know, because this was kind of one of those like hidden gems of I think 2021 or 2020.
00:49:38.218 --> 00:49:41.198
Or for serious podcasters.
00:49:41.198 --> 00:49:46.078
But it was, this is a remake of an Argentinian film called 4x4.
00:49:46.078 --> 00:49:54.018
I had to call out Fangoria because they had made a post saying, you know, new original horror films and theaters locked.
00:49:54.018 --> 00:49:57.438
And I'm going, well, to be fair, it's not original.
00:49:57.438 --> 00:49:58.878
It's a remake.
00:49:58.878 --> 00:50:02.438
I mean, and, you know, I understand, you know, most people would not know that.
00:50:02.438 --> 00:50:05.458
But come on, Fangoria, you're a horror magazine.
00:50:05.458 --> 00:50:07.458
You should know this by now.
00:50:07.458 --> 00:50:08.778
But I digress.
00:50:08.778 --> 00:50:11.718
That's just me and my little snotty ways there at the moment.
00:50:11.718 --> 00:50:18.158
But well, and I'm looking at our friends' reviews because I'm looking to see if anyone else caught on and no one else is sharing.
00:50:18.158 --> 00:50:20.338
And I'm disappointed in every single podcaster.
00:50:20.338 --> 00:50:23.078
We know if you did not know this was a remake.
00:50:23.078 --> 00:50:25.138
Well, I mean, they may not have even seen the original.
00:50:25.138 --> 00:50:25.758
Don't care.
00:50:25.758 --> 00:50:26.278
They should.
00:50:26.278 --> 00:50:27.478
They're podcasters.
00:50:28.838 --> 00:50:30.458
But Scott and I want and Scott and I knew.
00:50:30.578 --> 00:50:31.718
We talked about it on this show.
00:50:31.718 --> 00:50:32.598
Yes, we did.
00:50:32.598 --> 00:50:34.678
If you were a fan of our show, you would know.
00:50:34.678 --> 00:50:36.018
And I was a big fan of the show.
00:50:37.338 --> 00:50:42.558
In fact, actually, I think I gave this the Survival Movie of the Year Award.
00:50:42.558 --> 00:50:46.198
And it was almost a scene by scene remake, just to be clear, too.
00:50:46.198 --> 00:50:47.978
Yeah, till the third act.
00:50:47.978 --> 00:50:49.978
Yeah, but it was pretty close.
00:50:49.978 --> 00:50:56.238
Yeah, thankfully, though, for being an American remake, they casted some very good actors.
00:50:56.618 --> 00:50:58.398
Dahl-Starsgaard and Anthony Hopkins.
00:50:58.398 --> 00:51:00.538
They did amazing in their roles.
00:51:00.538 --> 00:51:01.738
I thought they were great.
00:51:01.738 --> 00:51:05.298
And yeah, but yeah, it was basically the exact same movie.
00:51:05.298 --> 00:51:14.598
Just the third act was changed up with Anthony Hopkins doing what he did in the third act instead of what happened in the Argentinian film.
00:51:14.598 --> 00:51:17.438
And I will say, both did the same thing for me.
00:51:17.438 --> 00:51:20.138
By the time I got to the third act, I was tired of it.
00:51:20.718 --> 00:51:24.078
I feel like eventually, I'm like, can you get the fuck out of this car?
00:51:24.078 --> 00:51:26.638
But I did enjoy the acting of this.
00:51:26.638 --> 00:51:28.058
I do think it's a great film.
00:51:28.058 --> 00:51:30.918
And I'm not going to take away people's love of this movie.
00:51:30.918 --> 00:51:36.898
But I want to just make it clear that it's a remake, because it bothers me when I see things like, this is so original.
00:51:36.898 --> 00:51:39.538
It's not original, just because it's North American.
00:51:39.538 --> 00:51:44.378
It was made by a country, Argentina.
00:51:45.018 --> 00:51:46.638
It was created five years ago.
00:51:50.198 --> 00:51:54.258
And the thing is,
if you read it online, they totally say it's a remake.
00:51:54.258 --> 00:51:55.818
Like the director talks about it.
00:51:56.118 --> 00:51:58.438
It's definitely open that, no, no, we got inspiration.
00:51:58.438 --> 00:51:59.978
We basically remade this film.
00:51:59.978 --> 00:52:01.558
So I appreciate that.
00:52:01.558 --> 00:52:06.038
But just for the horror fans out there, it is indeed a remake.
00:52:06.038 --> 00:52:07.938
And the horror news site.
00:52:07.938 --> 00:52:11.318
Yes, and the horror news site is a fucking remake.
00:52:12.538 --> 00:52:14.918
But I would say it's one of the better American remakes.
00:52:14.918 --> 00:52:15.798
So I will give it that.
00:52:15.918 --> 00:52:17.338
And I definitely think it's worth a watch.
00:52:17.338 --> 00:52:18.978
I think you should watch both, to be honest with you.
00:52:18.978 --> 00:52:20.618
They are very similar.
00:52:20.618 --> 00:52:24.998
But I think you should watch 4x4 first, to be honest, and then watch the remake.
00:52:24.998 --> 00:52:27.058
Yeah, I agree, because then you can see the differences.
00:52:27.058 --> 00:52:32.738
And even the differences, I think I gave them both a 7.5.
00:52:33.498 --> 00:52:35.578
They were both very good.
00:52:35.578 --> 00:52:38.638
Not very good, but very entertaining for me.
00:52:38.638 --> 00:52:42.898
I wasn't bored over it like you did, because I know you were like that with the original, too.
00:52:43.958 --> 00:52:47.178
But yeah, I was invested the entire time.
00:52:47.178 --> 00:52:48.278
Erika was kind of like you.
00:52:48.278 --> 00:52:51.738
She was invested for a bit, and then just lost interest towards the end.
00:52:51.738 --> 00:52:55.238
But me, I think for both films, I was invested all the way through.
00:52:55.238 --> 00:52:57.878
So yeah, I'd say it's definitely worth a rental.
00:52:57.878 --> 00:53:06.058
It was in theaters, too, which was interesting, because I didn't hear much hype about it, or even trailer for it, to announce that it was in theaters.
00:53:06.058 --> 00:53:17.498
But it's available now on Apple TV, Google Play, Amazon Video, Flix Fling, YouTube, and available to buy on Apple TV, Google Play, Amazon Video, and YouTube as well.
00:53:17.498 --> 00:53:35.138
And I definitely recommend if you're into those survival horror movies where this guy is trapped in a car that is super high tech, you got to throw logic out the window on how something like this could be made, but it's still a entertaining movie, and I recommend it.
00:53:35.138 --> 00:53:37.038
Great.
00:53:37.038 --> 00:53:42.438
So basically rent it on any of the providers, Amazon, YouTube, Cineplex here in Canada.
00:53:42.438 --> 00:53:43.198
Yes.
00:53:43.198 --> 00:53:44.818
We recommend it.
00:53:44.818 --> 00:53:46.038
Just watch Farby 4 first.
00:53:46.038 --> 00:53:47.758
Yeah.
00:53:47.758 --> 00:53:48.638
Cryptic.
00:53:48.638 --> 00:53:48.958
Yep.
00:53:51.758 --> 00:53:52.298
Anyway.
00:53:52.298 --> 00:53:53.278
Yep.
00:53:53.278 --> 00:53:54.518
Moving on.
00:53:56.278 --> 00:53:56.878
This won't be long.
00:53:56.878 --> 00:53:57.998
Did you watch this movie?
00:53:57.998 --> 00:53:58.618
No, I did not.
00:53:58.618 --> 00:53:59.218
No, thank God.
00:53:59.218 --> 00:53:59.738
Okay.
00:53:59.738 --> 00:54:06.798
So a woman's search for a missing cryptosuologist leads to her own riveting cosmic quest for identity.
00:54:10.118 --> 00:54:12.018
So this is a 95-minute runtime.
00:54:12.018 --> 00:54:12.758
Let me say this.
00:54:12.758 --> 00:54:14.398
It sets it up really cool.
00:54:14.398 --> 00:54:18.958
It has a big big foot thing, and this person's gone missing, how are we going to find them?
00:54:18.958 --> 00:54:21.458
But Jesus Christ, did this movie drag.
00:54:21.518 --> 00:54:22.798
Jesus Christ.
00:54:22.798 --> 00:54:24.238
Seems to be the theme this year.
00:54:24.238 --> 00:54:25.998
Oh, on and on.
00:54:25.998 --> 00:54:31.218
And I will be honest, this is something that should have been coming out from A24 or IFC Midnight.
00:54:31.958 --> 00:54:33.098
This is their jam.
00:54:35.438 --> 00:54:50.238
If you like following a character as they examine cryptic zoologists' stuff like Bigfoot, aliens, species, whether they existed or not, then you will like this film.
00:54:50.238 --> 00:54:51.758
This will be a film for you.
00:54:51.758 --> 00:54:55.298
If you are an average horror fan, I don't think you need to watch this film.
00:54:55.298 --> 00:54:59.378
I think it will drag out a lot because it is very dialogue heavy.
00:54:59.378 --> 00:55:08.818
It is very a lot of staring at the screen, watching the character stare into the wilderness, watching the character be sad in the bathroom, you know what I mean?
00:55:08.818 --> 00:55:15.498
Like that real artistic like, yeah, they're trying to do the substance, but not as well.
00:55:15.498 --> 00:55:21.018
Again, they watch the substance and like, oh man, look at those artistic scenes where Debbie Moore's vacuuming and like fucked up.
00:55:21.018 --> 00:55:24.318
We should do the same thing, but it doesn't land.
00:55:24.358 --> 00:55:27.778
Movie, just cause someone else did it.
00:55:27.798 --> 00:55:30.378
It doesn't mean you can too.
00:55:30.378 --> 00:55:32.018
Okay?
00:55:32.018 --> 00:55:40.018
My niece did cartwheels at the park yesterday, then she flipped over and she went on the monkey bars and flipped herself around the monkey bars and like basically looked like a gymnast.
00:55:40.018 --> 00:55:42.638
I can't do that because I'm 42 fucking years old.
00:55:42.638 --> 00:55:46.958
There's some things that everybody can do that somebody else can do.
00:55:47.518 --> 00:55:51.398
If I did it, I would be in the ER still and we wouldn't be recording.
00:55:51.558 --> 00:55:56.038
So let's just know our limits simply within it moving forward.
00:55:56.038 --> 00:56:06.058
Anyway, if for some reason that what I said,
like if you do really like that slow burn, you do really like those still shots and you really do like this whole cryptic shit, then yes, this is a movie for you.
00:56:06.058 --> 00:56:11.578
You can find it on Apple TV, flick fling, flex or rental if you would like.
00:56:11.578 --> 00:56:13.238
So good to know.
00:56:13.258 --> 00:56:15.118
I will make sure to avoid.
00:56:15.118 --> 00:56:15.838
It is fine.
00:56:15.838 --> 00:56:17.338
Now, now this one.
00:56:17.438 --> 00:56:18.298
Oh boy.
00:56:18.298 --> 00:56:20.278
Movie of the year.
00:56:20.278 --> 00:56:21.018
I'm going to lead it in.
00:56:21.018 --> 00:56:21.618
Fuck you, Scotty.
00:56:21.618 --> 00:56:23.558
It's the best movie ever.
00:56:23.558 --> 00:56:24.478
A Breed Apart.
00:56:25.358 --> 00:56:29.438
This is a movie that I thought was going to be a remake of The Breed, but it kind of is, but not.
00:56:29.438 --> 00:56:31.778
It kind of is like, have you seen The Breed?
00:56:31.778 --> 00:56:33.318
Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.
00:56:33.318 --> 00:56:36.838
We're going to kind of talk about it, but it's not The Breed.
00:56:36.838 --> 00:56:38.858
Like, subscribe, survive.
00:56:38.858 --> 00:56:40.718
Also social media influencers.
00:56:40.738 --> 00:56:50.438
When Violet accepts an invitation to a private island with some of the words, what world's most famous social influencers, she expects a weekend of unrivaled viral opportunities.
00:56:50.438 --> 00:56:58.378
She soon becomes part of her own horrific reality show when the guests are pitted against each other after the island's lego-lego-lego-legoceri.
00:57:00.018 --> 00:57:02.078
I can't say this.
00:57:02.078 --> 00:57:03.498
Lega-legoceri?
00:57:03.538 --> 00:57:04.698
Yes, lego-legoceri.
00:57:04.698 --> 00:57:05.438
Legendary?
00:57:05.438 --> 00:57:06.438
Legendary.
00:57:06.438 --> 00:57:08.418
Fucking legoceri.
00:57:08.418 --> 00:57:14.378
Man-eating dogs before they become victims of the monstrous canines that are definitely not CGI.
00:57:14.378 --> 00:57:15.998
Wink, wink, wink.
00:57:15.998 --> 00:57:23.498
And Jesus Christ, that synopsis could not be any more wrong about the main character.
00:57:23.498 --> 00:57:30.878
She didn't want any viral opportunities, and also they were not pitted against each other at all.
00:57:32.658 --> 00:57:33.578
Nope.
00:57:33.578 --> 00:57:34.678
But that's fine.
00:57:34.678 --> 00:57:35.418
You know what?
00:57:35.418 --> 00:57:36.138
We're here for it.
00:57:36.138 --> 00:57:37.478
Because you know what was in this movie?
00:57:37.478 --> 00:57:38.598
Puppies.
00:57:38.598 --> 00:57:42.798
And I don't really fucking care because there was dogs.
00:57:42.798 --> 00:57:43.818
I like that there was dogs.
00:57:43.818 --> 00:57:52.978
There was a really cute puppy at one point, and then they CGI-ed it because it attacked a lady, and then she had to throw it against a tree, which I thought was hilarious because it was clearly CGI.
00:57:52.978 --> 00:57:54.078
Like they all, I don't know.
00:57:54.078 --> 00:57:55.158
This movie is fucking dumb.
00:57:55.158 --> 00:58:04.498
It's about a bunch of dogs that attack people, and then the dogs go CGI because they come crazy, and the people fight off the dogs in the most realistic, ridiculous ways possible.
00:58:04.498 --> 00:58:06.618
All the characters are annoying.
00:58:06.618 --> 00:58:07.898
You don't care about any of them.
00:58:07.898 --> 00:58:09.458
You're hoping they're all gonna die.
00:58:09.458 --> 00:58:11.238
You don't give a shit if any of them make it out.
00:58:11.458 --> 00:58:13.758
They all make stupid decisions.
00:58:13.758 --> 00:58:15.498
The ending's super dumb.
00:58:15.498 --> 00:58:18.338
This whole movie's dumb, but I was fucking here for it.
00:58:18.338 --> 00:58:21.098
Yeah, I have not finished it.
00:58:21.098 --> 00:58:22.578
I got about halfway through it.
00:58:22.578 --> 00:58:25.118
I'm going, do I even want to go back?
00:58:25.118 --> 00:58:27.618
But I messaged you and went, you need to watch this.
00:58:27.898 --> 00:58:30.278
This is like your type of dumb comedy.
00:58:31.118 --> 00:58:33.058
This is like, it's got puppies.
00:58:33.558 --> 00:58:35.438
This is totally a Heather movie.
00:58:35.438 --> 00:58:37.718
You need to watch it because I know you'll like it.
00:58:38.398 --> 00:58:45.138
I'm not enjoying myself with it right now, but I'll probably at least finish it off just so I can add it to my list.
00:58:45.138 --> 00:58:48.058
But Jesus Christ, I hated every character.
00:58:48.058 --> 00:58:52.738
Hayden Penetier was basically like, you know, I was in the Scream movie twice.
00:58:52.738 --> 00:58:53.578
I'm here now.
00:58:53.578 --> 00:58:54.778
Thanks for the paycheck.
00:58:54.778 --> 00:58:55.238
Okay, bye.
00:58:55.898 --> 00:58:57.058
That is exactly.
00:58:57.058 --> 00:58:59.678
And she was also in the movie that we...
00:58:59.678 --> 00:59:00.318
Oh, no, she wasn't.
00:59:00.318 --> 00:59:02.358
Was she in the movie where the weed farm?
00:59:02.358 --> 00:59:03.298
Was that her?
00:59:03.298 --> 00:59:04.178
The weed farm?
00:59:04.238 --> 00:59:06.878
Yeah, I'm trying to remember if that was her.
00:59:06.878 --> 00:59:08.078
Now, I can't remember.
00:59:08.078 --> 00:59:08.938
Ah, it doesn't matter.
00:59:08.938 --> 00:59:09.538
It gives a shit.
00:59:09.538 --> 00:59:19.918
Anyway, a breed apart, if you like German shepherds and you like German shepherds being ravenous and then turning into CGI dogs that are ravenous and fucking up people, this movie's for you.
00:59:19.918 --> 00:59:23.638
If you watched The Breed and you were like, I want more, this movie's for you.
00:59:24.998 --> 00:59:28.118
I want more, but with even more annoying characters.
00:59:28.118 --> 00:59:35.098
Yes, I made the people, the young, the sack and the ladies from the Summer Party Massacre watch The Breed.
00:59:35.098 --> 00:59:35.838
And they hated it.
00:59:35.838 --> 00:59:38.178
And all I said was this movie was the best because it had dogs in it.
00:59:38.178 --> 00:59:41.818
And the fact that you guys don't like it means you don't like animals and that you're murderers.
00:59:42.858 --> 00:59:44.638
I mean, first of all, there's dogs.
00:59:44.638 --> 00:59:46.918
Yeah, there's dogs.
00:59:46.918 --> 00:59:48.298
Third of all, there's dogs.
00:59:48.298 --> 00:59:49.098
There's dogs.
00:59:49.098 --> 00:59:50.298
So like, I don't know.
00:59:50.298 --> 00:59:53.538
And even I will say River was really invested.
00:59:53.698 --> 00:59:55.538
He was watching because of all the puppers.
00:59:55.538 --> 00:59:56.038
Right.
00:59:56.038 --> 00:59:57.278
And he's only got one eye.
00:59:57.278 --> 00:59:59.378
And he was like, yeah, he was like, he's like my people.
00:59:59.378 --> 01:00:01.198
He's like, yeah, they're fucking shit up as they should.
01:00:01.198 --> 01:00:02.498
So this is 100 minutes.
01:00:02.498 --> 01:00:03.118
I loved it.
01:00:03.118 --> 01:00:03.958
OK.
01:00:03.958 --> 01:00:04.838
Real rating.
01:00:04.838 --> 01:00:06.978
This is a solid three and a half out of 10.
01:00:06.978 --> 01:00:07.938
Heather rating.
01:00:07.938 --> 01:00:10.318
This is a 10 out of 10.
01:00:10.318 --> 01:00:12.178
I knew it.
01:00:12.178 --> 01:00:13.478
Real movie.
01:00:13.478 --> 01:00:14.358
Three and a half.
01:00:14.358 --> 01:00:18.258
You side on my side of things and you're simple like me.
01:00:18.318 --> 01:00:19.698
10 out of 10.
01:00:21.338 --> 01:00:22.258
I love it.
01:00:22.258 --> 01:00:24.118
And Scotty rating.
01:00:24.118 --> 01:00:26.638
It's a five out of 10.
01:00:26.638 --> 01:00:28.978
Like the only redeeming quality is the puppies.
01:00:28.978 --> 01:00:29.198
Right.
01:00:29.198 --> 01:00:30.038
And that's fair.
01:00:30.038 --> 01:00:31.238
That's fair.
01:00:31.258 --> 01:00:37.218
So and I think I enjoyed watching River watch the movie more than I watching the movie.
01:00:37.218 --> 01:00:46.258
I'm going to I'm going to flip it and reverse it because I want I think the last two movies affected us because we're bringing back a movie that you went and watched.
01:00:46.558 --> 01:00:48.838
So we don't need to go over it too much because we didn't watch it.
01:00:48.918 --> 01:00:50.798
I really want to hear your reaction to it.
01:00:50.958 --> 01:00:55.738
That's why I put it dead last because I was like, it'll be quick and easy just like me in general.
01:00:55.738 --> 01:00:57.758
But anyways, I want to hear it now.
01:00:57.758 --> 01:00:59.098
I mean, yeah.
01:00:59.098 --> 01:00:59.298
Yeah.
01:00:59.298 --> 01:01:02.298
So I ended up watching The Rule of Jenny Penn.
01:01:02.298 --> 01:01:17.178
And the reason I kind of held off for a while is just because my stepdad had gone through a lot of shit recently, like medical-wise, and I was not going to be in the right head space for something
this heavy that kind of dealt with getting older.
01:01:17.178 --> 01:01:25.538
And he's doing better now, thankfully, and he didn't have to go to a home like we were kind of worried about at first.
01:01:25.538 --> 01:01:31.198
But yeah, so I watched this and god damn, this was a fucking good movie.
01:01:31.198 --> 01:01:34.238
John Lithgow is a fucking dick bully.
01:01:34.418 --> 01:01:41.898
Holy shit, like he was mean, but like the acting in this was phenomenal.
01:01:41.898 --> 01:01:47.538
Jeffrey Rush and John Lithgow were absolute incredible stock, like incredible acting power.
01:01:47.538 --> 01:01:53.838
And they, their chemistry together, being on opposite sides, went so well together.
01:01:53.838 --> 01:02:07.678
But god damn, this was a heavy kind of sad film, just because, you know, and I, like you just said, I love that they actually showed a nursing home where, you know, the people working at this nursing home aren't complete fucking dicks.
01:02:07.678 --> 01:02:16.898
They're actually trying to take care of the patients and like doing what they can and having the patients to deal with some of the people and the way they are.
01:02:16.898 --> 01:02:23.058
But yeah, just like some of what's happens in this movie is just very heavy and I loved it.
01:02:23.058 --> 01:02:24.138
I absolutely loved it.
01:02:24.338 --> 01:02:29.498
It kind of hit me in the personal feelings because of everything I've been going through.
01:02:29.498 --> 01:02:32.038
But yeah, I'm glad I finally watched it.
01:02:32.038 --> 01:02:36.238
And I was I felt like I was time like because everything was better with my stepfather.
01:02:36.238 --> 01:02:40.018
So yeah, this was an amazing movie and it will definitely be in my top 10.
01:02:40.018 --> 01:02:42.118
I'm very glad to hear that.
01:02:42.118 --> 01:02:43.398
I'm looking forward to it.
01:02:43.398 --> 01:02:44.938
I will bring it up again this year.
01:02:44.938 --> 01:02:46.178
It will definitely be brought up.
01:02:46.178 --> 01:02:49.918
This is definitely one I will be rewatching a lot just because of how heavy it is.
01:02:49.938 --> 01:02:51.398
But goddamn, is it good.
01:02:51.398 --> 01:02:53.558
But excellent film.
01:02:53.558 --> 01:03:02.298
Another good film, The Ending, got a little sidetracked, which I don't know, was my fucking life played out on screen.
01:03:02.298 --> 01:03:03.318
Yeah.
01:03:03.318 --> 01:03:11.558
So as I have discussed, actually, before we were supposed to report this podcast back on August 11th, my dad tragically died of a heart attack.
01:03:11.558 --> 01:03:16.858
I was actually on the call with Scotty when my mom called me to let me know the paramedics were there and my dad was on responsive.
01:03:18.418 --> 01:03:20.078
And my life changed.
01:03:20.078 --> 01:03:23.738
After that, my mom got diagnosed with breast cancer again.
01:03:23.738 --> 01:03:31.258
And good news is that she had the spot removed from her breast and the cancer has not spread.
01:03:31.258 --> 01:03:34.838
They actually thought they did, but that doesn't seem like it right now.
01:03:34.838 --> 01:03:37.678
And she's able to do radiation only.
01:03:37.678 --> 01:03:38.298
That's great.
01:03:38.298 --> 01:03:38.838
Yes.
01:03:38.838 --> 01:03:40.658
So it's been a year.
01:03:40.718 --> 01:03:41.258
Yes.
01:03:41.258 --> 01:03:42.658
Yes, it has.
01:03:43.978 --> 01:03:51.638
So this movie, when it came out, it came out, you know, I do believe that, I do believe in God and I believe in spirits and I believe in a lot of different things.
01:03:51.638 --> 01:04:01.438
And I do believe that my dad has been with me through a lot of this, especially because my mom is a strong-willed person, much like me.
01:04:01.438 --> 01:04:02.778
So it's been fun.
01:04:02.858 --> 01:04:11.758
But this movie is called The Surrenderer, and it's about a mother daughter relationship when their husband slash father dies.
01:04:11.758 --> 01:04:22.798
And I won't give too much away, but there was a conversation that the mother and the daughter have, which I could have swore this writer went into my mom's house and videoed my mom and I having this conversation.
01:04:22.798 --> 01:04:25.918
Like it was per beta the exact same conversation.
01:04:25.918 --> 01:04:27.118
Which is crazy.
01:04:27.118 --> 01:04:30.498
Which was crazy and yet so crazily therapeutic.
01:04:30.498 --> 01:04:31.318
Yeah.
01:04:31.318 --> 01:04:35.658
There was a part where the daughter leaves the house and just screams outside.
01:04:35.658 --> 01:04:37.478
And I remember feeling that way.
01:04:39.138 --> 01:04:44.038
After leaving my mom's place after my dad had died.
01:04:44.038 --> 01:04:48.958
And just dealing with my mom's incredible amount of guilt and sadness.
01:04:48.958 --> 01:04:52.618
And a sadness that you can't fix, you know, like there's no fixing it.
01:04:52.618 --> 01:04:57.798
So this movie for me, it was very therapeutic.
01:04:57.798 --> 01:05:14.978
Now, if I remove my piece from it, I do think that this is a movie that if you have lost a parent, and perhaps you were an only child, or you were highly involved in the dynamic, you should watch when you are ready.
01:05:14.978 --> 01:05:19.918
I found it quite healing, but not everybody would find it like that.
01:05:19.918 --> 01:05:21.878
Right.
01:05:21.878 --> 01:05:24.698
That aside, great acting, the acting is great.
01:05:24.698 --> 01:05:30.658
Whoever wrote this clearly has been in this situation and was able to relate with, you know, someone going through it.
01:05:30.658 --> 01:05:31.978
The ending gets a little weird.
01:05:31.978 --> 01:05:33.878
It gets kind of like that dark song one.
01:05:33.978 --> 01:05:40.398
Remember where like they do this, like that whole, it's like this weeks of like their, their ceremonies and they're trying to like...
01:05:40.398 --> 01:05:40.898
Oh, yeah.
01:05:40.898 --> 01:05:41.638
Remember that movie?
01:05:41.638 --> 01:05:44.038
It's kind of like that.
01:05:44.038 --> 01:05:47.898
There's a lot of that kind of talk pulled into it, which was interesting.
01:05:49.198 --> 01:05:53.798
So it does, it does kind of play on the paranormal a lot too.
01:05:53.798 --> 01:05:55.838
But really, really solid, well-made film.
01:05:55.838 --> 01:05:57.558
It's a 95-minute runtime.
01:05:57.558 --> 01:06:10.898
And if you have experienced a loss and it's been enough time, you know, for me, this was refreshing and very, very nice to see what I experienced on screen and to not feel like I'm crazy.
01:06:10.898 --> 01:06:16.238
Like to not feel like I'm the only one, because even though, of course, I know I'm not, it was nice to see it played out.
01:06:16.238 --> 01:06:20.578
I'm sure you kind of felt something similar with The Rule of Jenny Pin.
01:06:20.578 --> 01:06:26.118
And then, well, like I said, this is your After Midnight, how After Midnight was very therapeutic for me.
01:06:26.158 --> 01:06:28.138
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
01:06:28.138 --> 01:06:30.018
So I do think it's worth a watch on Shudder.
01:06:30.018 --> 01:06:31.478
I would recommend it, Scotty.
01:06:31.478 --> 01:06:34.518
I don't think you're in a situation right now like Wayne is doing well.
01:06:34.518 --> 01:06:42.498
And I think that this wouldn't trigger you for anything, but I think it does give a very clear what happens when family dynamics change.
01:06:42.498 --> 01:06:44.798
And I give Shudder credit.
01:06:44.798 --> 01:06:49.938
Like other years, Shudder has sucked, I will say, they dropped interesting things.
01:06:49.938 --> 01:06:52.738
And whether they're your number one film or not, doesn't matter.
01:06:52.738 --> 01:06:54.158
It's different and it's interesting.
01:06:54.418 --> 01:06:54.838
Exactly.
01:06:54.838 --> 01:07:01.898
They always bring something unique and might be more real lifestyle horror.
01:07:01.898 --> 01:07:02.578
Yeah.
01:07:02.578 --> 01:07:07.318
And not like the typical spooky jump scare horror, which is what I appreciate.
01:07:07.318 --> 01:07:10.038
You know, they have that as well, but they also they have a variety.
01:07:10.038 --> 01:07:10.498
Yeah.
01:07:10.498 --> 01:07:10.958
Yeah.
01:07:11.418 --> 01:07:13.138
And I think it's worth the purchase.
01:07:13.138 --> 01:07:19.478
If for some reason you're not subscribed to Shudder, depending where you live, because I know definitely different places, Shudder, you get different things.
01:07:19.478 --> 01:07:22.198
Like when I'm in the UK, my Shudder is different than it is when I'm here.
01:07:23.638 --> 01:07:25.278
Especially in Australia, it seems.
01:07:25.278 --> 01:07:26.058
Yeah.
01:07:26.058 --> 01:07:32.458
So I understand that it's different, but I think if you live in North America, Canada, or United States, I think Shudder is definitely worth your investment.
01:07:32.478 --> 01:07:34.318
100 percent.
01:07:34.318 -->
01:07:39.758
I took off our older watch simply because I was worried about Edmond waking up before we finished.
01:07:39.758 --> 01:07:40.478
So all right.
01:07:40.478 --> 01:07:46.678
And I got to run to the bathroom real quick before you get to your next thing, because I want to hear this.
01:07:46.678 --> 01:07:47.118
Okay.
01:07:47.118 --> 01:07:49.278
Well, then I'll talk about my older watch real quickly then.
01:07:49.318 --> 01:07:49.618
Okay.
01:07:49.618 --> 01:07:50.418
I will be right back.
01:07:50.418 --> 01:07:51.718
You don't care about that.
01:07:51.718 --> 01:07:52.598
Yeah, that's fine.
01:07:52.598 --> 01:07:53.878
I mean, I do care about it, but yeah.
01:07:53.958 --> 01:07:54.558
But you don't.
01:07:54.558 --> 01:07:56.098
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:07:56.158 --> 01:07:56.978
I'll be right back.
01:07:56.978 --> 01:07:57.238
All right.
01:07:57.238 --> 01:07:57.718
Sounds good.
01:07:57.718 --> 01:08:06.238
So the older watch that I was going to talk about, which is fitting that I'm talking about my nephew being here, is called The Baby 1973.
01:08:06.238 --> 01:08:12.298
So I saw this movie a little bit ago, and I had to watch it for another podcast.
01:08:12.298 --> 01:08:14.318
And let me tell you, it is weird as fuck.
01:08:14.318 --> 01:08:21.658
I don't know if you folks out there have seen this film, but Jesus Christ, is it weird?
01:08:21.658 --> 01:08:28.678
It's based upon a concept that this older man, I think he's in his 30s, believes that he is still a baby.
01:08:28.678 --> 01:08:40.718
And this social worker is trying to work with the family to understand whether they are allowing this behavior to continue, if there's a form of abuse, neglect, whatever.
01:08:40.718 --> 01:08:57.578
And as the plot twist turns out, the social worker is the evil one, because she's trying to bring this man to her house, because her husband experienced a traumatic brain injury and wants a playmate, which is who she brings as this gentleman who's a baby.
01:08:57.578 --> 01:09:00.638
It was uncomfortable to watch.
01:09:00.638 --> 01:09:02.358
I found it weird.
01:09:02.358 --> 01:09:13.078
It was very much a 1970s film that I don't think could have been remade in this time period.
01:09:13.258 --> 01:09:14.938
I hope it never is.
01:09:16.378 --> 01:09:19.078
Yeah, I'll give them credit for doing something different.
01:09:19.078 --> 01:09:24.178
And I'm glad that I've added to my watch list, because it is a well-known movie.
01:09:24.178 --> 01:09:28.598
But it definitely isn't something that I would recommend anyone needs to go out and watch.
01:09:28.598 --> 01:09:32.538
But it is The Baby 1973.
01:09:32.538 --> 01:09:38.578
So while Scottie's coming back, I will just set up the discussion for what we're going to talk about.
01:09:38.758 --> 01:09:42.998
So just recently, I went over to the United Kingdom.
01:09:42.998 --> 01:09:48.378
I went to stay in Newcastle upon time, which is somewhere that
I go frequently.
01:09:48.378 --> 01:09:52.578
I have some friends there, very close friends, that I go and I spend time with.
01:09:52.578 --> 01:10:03.018
While I was there this time, I saw a couple of different plays, including a Peter James play called It's Where You're Dead, which is a crime thriller, in the Theatre Royal, which was great.
01:10:03.018 --> 01:10:13.918
I also saw a play called Handbag, which talked about Margaret Thatcher and Queen Elizabeth's relationship and how they think they would have connected.
01:10:13.918 --> 01:10:17.478
As well as some wine tasting and some other live music events.
01:10:17.478 --> 01:10:20.358
But the biggest thing was that I hosted an event.
01:10:20.358 --> 01:10:22.198
I can hear that Scotty is back.
01:10:22.198 --> 01:10:22.658
So it's great.
01:10:22.658 --> 01:10:23.778
I'm just leading into the event.
01:10:23.778 --> 01:10:26.338
You missed me talking about my whole other bullshit.
01:10:27.418 --> 01:10:40.198
So I hosted an event for my friend Mark Iverson and Lucy Dollish, also known as Hart Pay, who is a Wiccan High Priest.
01:10:40.198 --> 01:10:43.678
So and the event was Meet the Author, Meet the Witch.
01:10:43.678 --> 01:10:46.818
So what we did for this event is we were in a pub there.
01:10:46.818 --> 01:10:52.358
We had a back room that also looks very medieval because everything in England looks medieval.
01:10:52.358 --> 01:10:55.618
And I did some question and answers with them.
01:10:55.618 --> 01:10:57.878
So for Mark, this is his third book.
01:10:57.878 --> 01:11:03.038
It is on Peter Cushing and his abroad career outside of England.
01:11:03.238 --> 01:11:07.218
And Lucy talked about her experience being a Wiccan high priestess.
01:11:07.218 --> 01:11:13.438
And what was interesting is that she kind of talked about her background of being someone that was devoted to the Christian faith.
01:11:13.438 --> 01:11:17.398
She was a minister and then switching over to the Wiccan faith.
01:11:17.398 --> 01:11:22.038
So I had a couple of questions and I would go back and ask them each questions.
01:11:22.038 --> 01:11:24.318
There is a video that I will share.
01:11:24.318 --> 01:11:25.438
So it was recorded.
01:11:25.438 --> 01:11:27.918
And of course, people can watch it if they choose to.
01:11:27.918 --> 01:11:30.598
There's absolutely no pressure to do that.
01:11:30.598 --> 01:11:31.618
But it was fascinating.
01:11:31.698 --> 01:11:35.578
It was fascinating to hear about Mark's decision to write about Peter Cushing.
01:11:35.578 --> 01:11:40.938
It's particularly about his career internationally with films.
01:11:40.938 --> 01:11:44.878
A lot of films that he made internationally and the different tone he took with there.
01:11:44.878 --> 01:11:53.298
And Lucy's journey into being a Wiccan and the misconceptions among the Wiccan faith and how it's really come commercialized.
01:11:53.418 --> 01:11:56.858
How you can go into the mall now and
there's these crystals and there's this and there's that.
01:11:56.858 --> 01:12:02.558
And she's like, it's really taking away from the authenticity of what this faith practices and believes.
01:12:02.558 --> 01:12:04.238
So that was really fascinating.
01:12:05.338 --> 01:12:14.458
I did talk a little bit about our podcast briefly because no one really cared about me being there except for the fact that I'm Canadian and they chatted with me after and some people said they were going to listen.
01:12:14.458 --> 01:12:20.038
So if you are one of the people at the event who have decided to listen, thank you for listening to Scott and I.
01:12:20.038 --> 01:12:26.798
You're definitely going to be happy to hear Scott because he's much more better spoken than I am with stuff.
01:12:27.038 --> 01:12:30.858
So you will enjoy hearing him.
01:12:30.858 --> 01:12:34.538
But yeah, it was a very good time and I'm glad the event went well.
01:12:34.538 --> 01:12:37.918
And I will share that YouTube video for people that want to watch it.
01:12:37.918 --> 01:12:38.858
Yeah, that is awesome.
01:12:39.118 --> 01:12:40.718
I look because I remember you telling me about it.
01:12:40.718 --> 01:12:46.838
I remember you sending me pictures of the flyer when it first got created and you guys were talking about it like months ago.
01:12:46.838 --> 01:12:49.898
So I'm glad that it went as well as it did.
01:12:49.898 --> 01:12:52.218
And I look forward to checking out that video at some point.
01:12:52.958 --> 01:12:56.798
Because I also need to pick up some of Mark's books at some point.
01:12:56.798 --> 01:13:01.578
Because he writes about some of the actors that I really enjoyed growing up.
01:13:01.578 --> 01:13:05.558
So I would love to read that, especially since I've gotten back into reading as much as I have.
01:13:05.558 --> 01:13:07.318
You would really like his Cursed Horror Stars.
01:13:07.318 --> 01:13:11.438
I'll be honest, that is my favorite one because he talks a little bit about several.
01:13:11.438 --> 01:13:13.458
And it's kind of like an anthology.
01:13:13.458 --> 01:13:14.618
And I kind of like that.
01:13:14.618 --> 01:13:18.438
Like I really do like anthology flows, which reminds me, we haven't had a good anthology yet this year.
01:13:18.438 --> 01:13:19.838
I hope that happens at some point.
01:13:21.018 --> 01:13:24.298
Yeah, but I would recommend Cursed Horror Stars, his first book.
01:13:24.298 --> 01:13:27.198
I think his other two books are great as well.
01:13:27.198 --> 01:13:28.898
But I really think you would enjoy that one.
01:13:28.898 --> 01:13:29.958
So I would recommend that one.
01:13:29.958 --> 01:13:30.678
Okay, awesome.
01:13:30.678 --> 01:13:33.978
Yeah, I will have to look into that because I'm sure it can be ordered on Amazon.
01:13:33.978 --> 01:13:36.418
Oh yeah, I order all his books on Amazon.
01:13:36.418 --> 01:13:38.858
So yes, absolutely.
01:13:38.858 --> 01:13:41.438
So yeah, we'll see how this Google Meets record went.
01:13:41.438 --> 01:13:42.718
Yay, us.
01:13:42.778 --> 01:13:46.318
Yeah, let's hope it actually worked.
01:13:46.318 --> 01:13:51.298
Scott and I will be back hopefully next month as well as we work our way towards Scottie's wedding in October.
01:13:51.298 --> 01:13:54.758
And I don't know, figuring out how we're going to record this podcast.
01:13:54.758 --> 01:14:05.998
You'll continue to hear from us monthly as we continue to navigate, you know, our elder millennial technology worlds and as well as recording this podcast.
01:14:05.998 --> 01:14:09.358
But yeah, as always, you can please support us.
01:14:09.918 --> 01:14:13.898
Please support the Legion Patreon page if you don't already.
01:14:13.898 --> 01:14:16.198
They support small little podcasts like Scottie and I.
01:14:16.198 --> 01:14:19.058
They've been great to us over the past five years.
01:14:19.058 --> 01:14:22.058
We couldn't have done it without their support, and it means a lot.
01:14:22.058 --> 01:14:30.478
So if you're not a member yet on theme of something that's coming out this year, Scottie wants to know, what are you waiting for?
01:14:30.478 --> 01:14:33.178
What are you waiting for? Patreon.com/LegionPodcasts
01:14:33.178 --> 01:14:35.938
Jennifer Love, you had better be saying this in the remake.
01:14:35.938 --> 01:14:37.938
What are you waiting for? patreon.com/LegionPodcasts
01:14:38.598 --> 01:14:42.638
I hope there's some kind of tie-in.
01:14:42.638 --> 01:14:46.998
Whether she says it or someone else says it, I hope someone says it because it's got to be said.
01:14:46.998 --> 01:14:50.538
Yeah, and I hope it's just in a very nonchalant way.
01:14:50.538 --> 01:14:51.558
What are you waiting for?
01:14:51.558 --> 01:14:54.578
Yeah, I hope it's super like, like, what are you waiting for?
01:14:54.578 --> 01:14:55.158
Something like that.
01:14:55.358 --> 01:14:56.978
Yeah, just something ridiculous.
01:14:58.258 --> 01:14:59.838
So we will be back again.
01:14:59.838 --> 01:15:00.958
Who knows?
01:15:00.958 --> 01:15:02.018
Final Destination.
01:15:02.018 --> 01:15:04.638
Hopefully, both of us have seen the sixth one by that time.
01:15:04.638 --> 01:15:07.378
I've been hearing so many good things and I cannot wait.
01:15:07.538 --> 01:15:17.798
And it sounds like I may have an emotional moment in that with Tony Todd from, because apparently he did an ad lib line that kind of hits home.
01:15:17.798 --> 01:15:18.658
Oh, suck.
01:15:18.658 --> 01:15:19.978
Yeah.
01:15:19.978 --> 01:15:23.678
But I'm very excited because I've heard nothing but amazing things.
01:15:23.678 --> 01:15:31.438
Like, even the hater Rob Humphrey said it was okay, and he hates the Final Destination movies.
01:15:31.438 --> 01:15:35.418
You know, you know you made it as a Final Destination film when Rob doesn't hate it.
01:15:35.478 --> 01:15:37.038
Yeah.
01:15:37.038 --> 01:15:37.638
Right?
01:15:37.638 --> 01:15:42.058
When he said that, I was going, oh my god, hell is frozen over.
01:15:43.338 --> 01:15:46.958
Well, thank you everyone for listening, including Rob.
01:15:46.958 --> 01:15:48.258
Yeah.
01:15:48.258 --> 01:15:50.218
Who listens to our bullshit all the time.
01:15:50.218 --> 01:16:00.638
And we look forward to seeing you next month when we talk about the exciting never-ending world of horror movies in 2025, and see what platform we've decided to record on.
01:16:00.638 --> 01:16:01.778
Should be interesting.
01:16:01.778 --> 01:16:02.178
Yeah.
01:16:02.178 --> 01:16:05.398
And see if we can navigate our way through all this crap.
01:16:05.398 --> 01:16:06.478
Thanks, Microsoft.
01:16:06.478 --> 01:16:08.018
Fuck you for taking away Skype.
01:16:08.018 --> 01:16:09.078
Fuck you, Skype.
01:16:09.098 --> 01:16:10.718
Fuck you.
01:16:10.718 --> 01:16:13.278
So do you have anything to say to the good people, Scotty?
01:16:13.318 --> 01:16:14.318
Thank you, as always.
01:16:14.318 --> 01:16:19.798
Thank you again for listening to us and putting up with our crazy asses and our bullshit.
01:16:19.798 --> 01:16:24.238
And until next time, kiddies, unpleasant dreams.
01:16:24.278 --> 01:16:24.498
What?
01:16:28.398 --> 01:16:28.678
See ya.
